  C                           Em
I don't know where I'm going, but this road I'm on,

   Am        G                 C    C
Is taking me places I've never been,

  C                            Em
I don't do well on my own, but when you're here I swear I'm home,

    Am                         G            C    C
The love you gave is more than I could ever pay,

  C                        Em
I just moved out west, and God I'm scared to death,

       Am                     G            C    C
Of the things that people are aiming me to be,

    C                      Em
And how do I make sense of all this shit I'm in,

          Am                G                   C   C
It's like everyone wants to help but no one can see.
[Chorus]
F                        G
When I close my eyes and think about my dreams,

       C                G/B        Am
It's a million eyes and one set of strings,

F                      G
And I'm convinced that you're the only one that knows me,

     C                   G/B         Am
With you I'm already the man I wanna be,

F                          G
They don't understand just how much your heart means,

   C                 G/B                  Am
It saved my life, it helped me forget the pain,

F*                       G7*
And don't you worry, the love we have won't leave,

    C*                       G/B*         C
You ain't in my head, you're in the way I breathe.
[Interlude] C Am Gadd11 G G7 [Verse 2]
C                      Em
One thing I miss most about the place I was grown,

   Am               G                C    C
Is no one saw me as more than just a kid,

             C
When this machine tries to buy me out,

  Em                       Em7
I scream out to the crowds,

      Am                      G             C    C
I'm a busted-ass boy that was built on honesty,

C
Mama always said to me,

   Em
My son, you're a sun to see,

Am                   G                    C    C
Where would I be without you believing in me,

           C
I got some boys that would die for me,

      Em
And a girl that would never leave,

Am*               G*       C*    C
What else could a man ever need.
[Chorus]
F                        G
When I close my eyes and think about my dreams,

       C                G/B        Am
It's a million eyes and one set of strings,

F                      G
And I'm convinced that you're the only one that knows me,

     C                   G/B         Am
With you I'm already the man I wanna be,

F                          G
They don't understand just how much your heart means,

   C                 G/B                  Am
It saved my life, it helped me forget the pain,

F*                       G7*
And don't you worry, the love we have won't leave,

N.C.                                      Cadd9
You ain't in my head, you're in the way I breathe.
