[Intro] Am F Dm E Em Am F Dm E F E [Verse 1]
Am                                                            F
It's hard to take off from the ground when your wings are cut

                                                          Dm
Your stomach burns when you're drinking from an empty cup
You know the entire ocean came from my tear ducts
  C                               E                          Am
I see the world through Fibonacci sequences and Double Dutch

                                                                   F
I guess there's some that's born lucky and there's some that's not

                                                Dm
I tried to cut away my bitterness - hatchet job
I locked my youth inside a trunk inside a pick up truck
     C                               G                               Am
Then dumped the whole thing over the same bridge the night you jumped
[Verse 2] I think about that sometimes, vividly
F
What it felt like to look down and see tranquility

Dm
One sudden movement in a world of possibility

Em                                         Am
Only one movement to expose our fragility
I fucking miss you, and I miss myself
F                                              Dm
I miss thinking we were indestructible as well
I miss chilling by the pier cave and kicking back
     Em                                                        Am
With Callum, Hugo, Justin, Saga, Stevie, and the fuckin' lads
I miss missing that, I numbed myself to close the gap
  F
I never even call 'em up, the distance is my plaster cast

   Dm
To tell the truth, the day you jumped my childhood jumped too

      Em
But I still can't find the anger, all I find is missing you

       Am
Man, I miss you, with all my rhymes

  F
I picture running 5 minutes quicker, I'm right on time

  Dm
I picture pulling you back over the edge and then we're crying

Em
And holding you, my brother, and telling you that it's fine

               Am
That's not the way that it worked, I was late like a jerk

              F
There's not a day where I can find a way to break from the hurt

          Dm
Your body missing so we never got to wave to the hearse

              Em
I hope you're listening, I love you, man, I miss you absurd, fuck
F Am G x2 [Bridge]
F     Am    G      F
Burn, burn, burn on

      Am      G
Burn, burn, burn
[Verse 3]
F                                                Am
Another domino it falls across the way another's born

                            G                                F
How you supposed to raise a child and give it courage from a storm?

                                                      Am
In a world that is confusing, contradictions pave our floors

               G                                         F
Some will say, "we're only human", others judge us for a flaws

                                                          Am
Some get born in sheets of satin, some get by in tattered clothes

                          G                               F
Some will die before they live, that's just how the story goes

                                                        Am
But for those of us still with us who reside inside our hearts

                          G    N.C.
Tell them proudly how you feel, and for those of us who aren't
[Verse 4]
Am
Freckled angels stand strong

                     F
Freckled angels live on
Freckled angels climb higher
                        Dm
Freckled angels still inspire
Freckled angels won't forget you
                         C
Teach me to live my life better

                           Dm
Thirteen years and still I miss you

       F                 Am
Now my wings are missing feather
Otherwise, I'd come and join you
                         F
But for now, I'm here on Earth
Stuck inside this mortal body
                        Dm  N.C.
But for everything it's worth
Made me braver, made me wiser
                        C
Made me strong, made me true
Made me face the world with courage
                          Am
And that's all because of you
F Dm C [Chorus]
Am N.C.                   F N.C.
Freckled angels laugh the hardest

                              Dm N.C.
And their hearts they are the largest

                              C N.C.
With their wings they fly the farthest
N.C. So I know you're gonna be okay N.C. Freckled angels live the longest N.C. And their minds they are the strongest N.C. Oh their friends they are the fondest N.C. So I know you're going to be okay
