C            Csus2 
One morning, I saw a girl,

Am 
Singing at the markets 

        C                         Csus2
She was singing about leaving her school,

                 Am 
To go follow her dreams 

      C                    Csus2                    Am 
"Well what am I doing with life if I'm bored out my mind?"

      C 
So I left that day,

      Csus2                Am 
Right after she opened my eyes 

               Em      Am
Now I'm on the road

           Em          Am 
I'm going home 

      C 
So I jumped off a cliff,

      Csus2 
And I opened my arms,

       F 
Never knowing if I would survive 

       C 
Now I'm free from the box,

      Csus2 
I was trapped in for so long,

      F 
And somehow I managed to fly 

      C 
And now I'm not alone,

      Csus2 
I am finally found 

      Am                          F 
And I don't have to try to blend in with the crowd 

           C 
And though she doesn't know it,

      Csus2 
That girl from the markets,

Am                          F 
Saved my life with that one song,

               C  Csus2  Am 
And now I belong 

         C 
And from then on,

                Csus2                 Am 
I dreamed about leaving, almost every night 

     C                          Csus2 
So I worked and I practiced for hours,

                  Am 
So that one day I might 

             C 
And when the moment came,

         Csus2                   Am 
I had to stand up and give it my all 

        C 
I gave everything in me,

   Csus2                   Am 
So that I'd fly instead of fall 

               Em     Am 
Now I'm on the road

           Em         Am 
I'm going home

     C 
So I jumped off a cliff,

      Csus2 
And I opened my arms,

       F 
Never knowing if I would survive 

        C 
Now I'm free from the box,

      Csus2 
I was trapped in for so long,

     F 
And somehow I managed to fly 

        C 
And now I'm not alone,

     Csus2 
I am finally found 

      Am                         F 
And I don't need to try to blend in with the crowd 

           C 
And though she doesn't know it,

      Csus2 
That girl at the market,

Am                          F 
Saved my life with that one song 

                C   Csus2   Am 
And now I belong 

         Am 
And now I can let go,

           F          C 
Of all the people who made me feel,

     Am        C 
Like I would never be healed,

         F                  C 
From the scars that they left 

        Am 
And now I can move on,

      F           C 
From not feeling good enough,

      Am      C 
Might even be able to love,

F     C 
Life again 

                    Am 
And my ghosts won't follow me,

F         C 
To my new home 

                 Am 
Can't take this away from me,

     F    C 
Cuz now I belong 

     C 
So I jumped off a cliff,

      Csus2 
And I opened my arms,

      F 
Never knowing If I would survive 

        C 
Now I'm free from the box,

      Csus2

Am                          F 
Saved my life with that one song
