Verso 1:

  G

I was six years old

G7

When my parents went away

C                        A7

I was stuck inside a broken life

I couldn't wish away

     G

She was beautiful

G7                      C

She had everything and more

                   A7                            

And my escape was hiding out and running for the door

Pre-coro:

C                 D9

Somebody listen please

C                           D9

It used to be so hard being me

Coro:

               G

Living in the shadow

                  G7

Of someone else's dream

                  C                                         F

Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me

              G

Living in a nightmare

                G7

A never-ending sleep

                       C

But now that I am wide awake

                       F

My chains are finally free

                     G

Don't feel sorry for me

Verso 2:

G

All the days collided

G7

One less perfect than the next

C                   A7                                      G

I was stuck inside someone else's life and always second best

                    G7                C

Oh, I love you now 'cause now I realize

                             A7            

That it's safe outside to come alive in my identity

Pre-coro:

C                D9

So if you're listening

C                                D9

There's so much more to me you haven't seen

Coro:

               G

Living in the shadow

                  G7

Of someone else's dream

                  C                                         F

Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me

              G

Living in a nightmare

                G7

A never-ending sleep

                       C

But now that I am wide awake

                       F

My chains are finally free

                    

Don't feel sorry for me

Puente:

Am                                  F

Mother, sister, father, sister, mother

Everything's cool now

Am                                  F

Mother, sister, father, sister, mother

Everything's cool now

D9             F

Oh, my life is good

                            D9

I've got more than anyone should

                  F

Oh, my life is good

                       G    G

And the past is in the past

Coro:

               G

I was living in the shadow

                   G7

Of someone else's dream

                  C                                         F

Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me

                   G

I'm living in a new day

                  G7

I'm living it for me

                        C

And now that I am wide awake

                   F

Then I can finally be

                   G

Don't feel sorry for me
