Verse 
Am                      Caug 
You're trying on a brand new dress 
Am                                  C7 
But you haven't worn the old one yet 
                 Fmaj7 Dm              Am        
You've come too far, to turn around now 
Am                      Caug 
You've given up the good fight 
Am                         C7 
You're as strong as anyone 
                                 Fmaj7     Dm 
You're back where you started from 
                                       Fmaj7     Dm 
I see you're back where you started from 

Chorus 
C/G                             Em                F 
You're staring down the stars, jealous of the moon 
Dm                        G 
You wish you could fly 
C/G                                    Em                   F 
But you're staying where you are, there's nothing you can do 
Dm                         G 
If you're too scared to try 

Cmaj7/D Am/D Cmaj7/D Am/D 

Verse 2 
Am            Caug          Am                C7
Drag your pretty head around, swearin' you're gonna drown
                 Fmaj7 Dm
With a beautiful sigh
               Fmaj7 Dm
And a river of lies 

Chorus 
C/G                             Em                F 
You're staring down the stars, jealous of the moon 
Dm                        G 
You wish you could fly 
C/G                                    E                    F 
But you're staying where you are, there's nothing you can do 
Dm                             G 
If you're too scared to try 

Bridge start on E chord 
E                                  Am    E 
Why don't you call me?   I could save you 
E                                       F 
Together we'll find a god we can pray to 
          Dm                   Am 
That'll take you by the hand 
Am                  Caug             Am           C7 
I hate to see a friend of mine, laughing out loud 
                    Fmaj7 Dm                   Fmaj7 Dm 
When she's crying inside but you've got your pride 

Repeat chorus
