Intro: Eb – Bb – Cm – Gm-Ab
Eb – Gm7– Cm –
I took my first step
Ab – Eb –
On the black and white kitchen floor
Gm7 – Cm –
I sometimes wonder if that house
Ab – Eb –
Is even there, anymore
Gm7 – Cm – Ab –
I had my first glimpse of love
Eb –
When I was five
Gm7 – Cm –
I watched two people split apart
Ab – Cm –
But still the three of us survived
Gm –
I've seen the best
Eb/Ab
I've seen the worst
Cm –
I wouldn't change what I've been through

Ab – Eb –
Almost stand we here
Gm7 –
I've found that standing still
Cm – Ab – Eb –
Can quickly make a lifetime disappear
Gm7 – Cm –
I'd rather try and fail
Ab – Eb –
A thousand times denied
Gm7 – Cm –
And least, whenever you feel pain
Ab – Cm –
It lets you know that you're alive
Gm/Bb –
I've been a fool
Eb/Ab
I've been afraid
I've been loved

I've been lied to
Gm/Bb –
I've been wrong
Eb/Ab
And I've been right

I stood up when I had to
O oooohhhh

To lead me to the other side
