[Intro 1]
[Am][Am][Am][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Maybe life[C] is like a ride [D]on a freew[G]ay
[Am]Dodging bull[C]ets
while you're [D]trying to [G]find your way
[Am]Everyone's[C] around,
but [D]no one does a [G]damn thing
It [C]brings me down, but [F]I won't l[G]et them

[Verse 2]
If I [Am]seem [C]bleak, well, [D]you'd be cor[G]rect
And if I [Am]don't speak,
[C]it's 'cause I can[D]'t disconnec[G]t
But I [Am]won't [C]be burned [D]by the re[G]flection
of the [Am]fire [C]in you[D]r eyes
As [E]you're staring at the

[Chorus 1]

As [E]you're staring at the [Am]sun

[Verse 3]
[Am]When I ran, [C]I didn't feel [D]like a runaw[G]ay
[Am]When I escaped[C], I didn't feel [D]like I got a[G]way
[Am]There's more to livi[C]ng than only[D] survivi[G]ng
Maybe [C]I'm not there, but [F]I'm still [G]trying

[Verse 4]
Though you [Am]hear [C]me,
I don't think [D]that you re[G]late
My will is [Am]something[C]
that you [D]can't confis[G]cate
So for[Am]give [C]me, but I [D]won't be frus[G]trated
by de[Am]struc[C]tion in [D]your eyes
As [E]you're staring at the

[Chorus 2]
[Am]sun, [C]oh[D]
As you're [G]staring at the [Am]sun, [C]oh[D][G]
