When I was a boy,
A Bdim
I dreamt like a man

I knew something was coming
E
And I should be waiting
A Bdim
I was assured
A Bdim
The ground wouldn't hold
Bm
All those nights in my bunk bed
E Riff 1
Learning to float
D Riff 1
That's how I got here
D A Riff 1
With a broken nose
D A Bm
And a skeptic's eye
E
I earned every night
A Bdim
Woooooo
A Bdim
Woooooo
A Bdim (linger after strumming this chord)
Up on that hill

At a sniper's remove
Bm
My lightning & arrows
E Riff 1
My burden of proof
D Riff 1
I made my mind up
D A Riff 1
At least I think I did
D A Bm
I could never be sure
E
All these voices at war
F# D E A E
F#
I blocked the one road
D
Locked every gate closed
E A E
I papered over the bridge
F#
And then I found out
D
My heart's a bloodhound
E E7 Riff 1
Always searching, always searching
D Riff 1
That's how you got here
D A Riff 1
Despite my best design
D A Bm
I picked up your scent,
E
And I let you sneak in.
