[Intro] Am G C Cadd9 [Verse 1]
Am                        G           C        Cadd9
I'm a new soul workin' my way down an old road

Am                 G     C   Cadd9
  Asphalt churches all around

Am                         G        C     Cadd9
  Roots break through this deep foundation

Am                       G     C     Cadd9
  Can't find my place on solid ground
[Pre-Chorus]
       F                C
No one taught me how to let go

     Am                       G
Been hangin' by a thread on a tightrope

        F                    C
And you can't speak what you don't know

           G
That's for sure
[Chorus]
         F           G           Am
So don't wait up for me, I don't need

     C
Your searchlight

      F             G                  Am
While you're fast asleep, I'm runnin' free

           C
Yeah, it's all right

  F                        G
I know you had a plan, but that's not who I am

  Am
I don't know where I'll land

      C
But I don't need

     F              G  N.C. Am   G/B C
Your searchlight to see anymore
[Verse 2]
Am                                     G    C    Cadd9
Raindrops fall, and they feel like the open ocean

Am                  G      C    Cadd9
Spider webs shimmer in the dark

Am                      G       C      Cadd9
  These movies play out in slow motion

Am               G      C     Cadd9
  Cobwebs linger in the heart
[Pre-Chorus]
       Fmaj9            C
No one taught me how to let go

     Am                       G
Been hangin' by a thread on a tightrope

            F                    C
But you can still learn what you don't know

           G
That's for sure
[Chorus]
N.C.     F           G            Am
So don't wait up for me, I don't need

     C
Your searchlight

      F             G                 Am
While you're fast asleep, I'm runnin' free

           C
Yeah, it's all right

  F                        G
I know you had a plan, but that's not who I am

  Am
I don't know where I'll land

      C
But I don't need

     F              G      Am   G/B C

[Interlude] Am G C [Bridge]
Am                        G           C       Cadd9
I'm a new soul workin' my way down an old road

Am                            G     C     Cadd9
  Just lookin' for a place on solid ground
[Chorus]
N.C.     F           G            Am
So don't wait up for me, I don't need

But I don't need

     F              G 
Your searchlight to see
