VERSE 1
Am/E Caug/E Am/E C7/E
You're trying on a brand new dress, but you havenâ??t worn the old one yet
You've come too[Fmaj7] far [Dm] To turn around [Am/E]now
(Am/E) Caug/E Am/E C7/E
You've given up the good fight, youâ??re as strong as anyone
You're back where you [Fmaj7]started from [Dm]
I see you're back where y[Fmaj7]ou started from[Dm]
CHORUS
[C]You're staring down the [Em]stars, jealous of the [F]moon
You [Dm]wish you could [G]fly
[C]But you're staying where you [Em]are, there's nothing you [F]can do
If you're [Dm]too scared to [G]try

[E] Why don't you call me? I could [Am]save you
[E] Together we'll find a God we can [F]pray to

Am/E Caug/E
