capo 1 — sounds a semitone higherIntro
Verse 1
I was barefoot on a gravel road,
Chasin' taillights, goin' nowhere slow,
Had a pocketknife and a reckless streak,
Didn't need permission just to be me.
Pre-Chorus 1
Back when I didn't think twice,
E E E*
Back when I felt alive . . ..
Chorus 1
Do you remember who you were,
Before the world got in your head?
Before you learned to bite your tongue,
And called survival growing up instead,
Before the fire turned to fear,
Before you went so quiet,
Do you remember who you were . . .,
Or did you learn to hide it?
Interlude
Verse 2
Now I say I'm fine, yeah I play my part,
Got a decent job and a careful heart,
Shake the right hands, keep my head down low,
Don't ask myself about what I let go.
Pre-Chorus 2
Funny how safe gets small,
Funny how silence hurts at all. Oooh oooh.
Chorus 2
Do you remember who you were,
Before the weight of all that noise?
When you ran just to feel the speed,
Not to prove some hollow point,
Before you traded what you needed,
For what they call realistic,
Do you remember who you were . . .,
Or did you miss it?
Bridge
If nobody was watching,
What would you do tonight?
If failure didn't own you,
What would still be worth the fight?
That kid ain't dead, she's just been waiting,
For you to quit the explaining . . ..
Chorus 3
Yeah, I remember who I was,
And I can feel her now,
Every time my pulse kicks harder,
When I think of breaking out,
I won't die wondering,
Won't live like I forgot,
Yeah, I remember who I was . . .,
And I want that back.
Interlude
Hmm ha . . .
Haa haa . . ..
Outro
Done with living halfway,
Done playing it safe,
I remember who I was,
And I'm saying her name.
