{Verse 1:} 
G                         C                       
   At twenty years of age   I'm still looking for a dream  
G                        C 
   A war's already waged   for my destiny  
G                      C 
   But You've already won the battle  
                               Am  C 
And You've got great plans for me  
                      Am   C (Drop on 4) 
Though I can’t always see  

{Chorus:} 
                        G           C 
(‘Cause) I got a couple dents in my fender  
             Em         D 
Got a couple rips in my jeans  
               G        C 
Try to fit the pieces together  
       Em            D 
But perfection is my enemy  
      G          C 
On my own I'm so clumsy  
    Am                      C   D 
But on Your shoulders I can see  

{1st Chorus End:} 
               G   C   Em  D (1 strum) 
I'm free to be me  

  
{Verse 2:} 
G                      C                       
When I was just a girl   I thought I had it figured out  
G                             C         (Drop on 1)      
My life would turn out right,   and I'd make it here somehow  
G                      C                       
But things don't always come that easy  
                      Am           C 
And sometimes I would doubt, Oh-oh-oh... 

(Chorus)  

{2nd Chorus End:} 
               Am    C 
I’m free to be me... 
                      Am     C 
And you’re free to be you... 

{Verse 3:} 
G                   C                       
Sometimes I believe   that I can do anything  
G                       C                       
Yet other times I think   I've got nothing good to bring  
G                       C                       
But You look at my heart and You tell me  
                      Am          C  
That I've got all You seek, oh-oh-oh 
                     Am          C      (Stop on 3) 
And it’s easy to believe... even though...  

(Chorus x2) 

{Outtro:} 
               G     C 
I’m free to be me... 
                      Am     C (one strum) 
And you’re free to be you...
