This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Verse

Here I sit halfway to somewhere

Thinking 'bout what's in front of me and what I left behind

On my own, supposed to be so easy

Is this what I've been after

or have I lost my mind

Maybe this is my chance, and it's coming to take me away, yeah

Chorus

If I should stumble on my moment in time, how will I know

if the story's written on my face, does it show

Am I strong enough to walk on water

Smart enough to come in out of rain

or am I fool going where the wind blows

Bridge

Asus2 C#m

Here I am, walking naked through the world

Asus2 E

taking up space, society's child

make room for me, make room for me, make room for me
