       A            G 
Oh, I wish I'd had help back then 
       A            G 
Oh, I wish I'd had better friends 
       D             G 
I was lost out there in the cold 
         D           G 
Oh, the cost felt immeasurable 

         A          G 
Yeah, I tried to go it alone 
         A            G 
Yeah, I lied to everyone back home 
         D              G 
Oh, the days they were turning black 
              D              G          D 
Could not believe the light would come back 
 

 
        A             Em7 
Until i-it did, bit by-y bit 
     A              G    D 
I remembered how to do it 
     A                       Em7 
I go-ot through, and I'll be fine 
          G                D                 A 
Still, I wish someone had been there at the time 

    G         D            A 
Oh how I, oh how I, how I grew (Oh, she grew) 
     G 
Into a new shape (Into a new shape) 
           A 
Something new (Something new) 

      G 
A foreign landscape 
         D            G 
With no trees, not a drop of rain 
              D                 G         D 
Would not believe things could grow from pain 
           A             Em7 
Until they-ey did, ledge by ledge 
         A         G         D 
I saw a baby bird raise its head 
     A                          Em 
I go-ot through, yeah, I'll be fine 

          G                D                 A 
Still, I wish someone had been there at the time 
         G                D                 A 
Yeah, I wish someone had been there at the time 
    G     A 
Ahh ah ah ah ah ah ah
