[Verse 1]
G C G
With angry wings,
C G
I flew out of that town
C G
I promised you I'd never turn around
Am D
Cocaine buzz and a caffeine high
Em C
Open all the windows under midnight skies
Am
With angry wings,
D G
I flew out of that town
[Pre-Chorus]
Am D
Chasing down a dream
Em G
Like a shadow in the breeze
Am D
From a thousand miles away
Em C
Wish you were right in front of me
Am D
Man, I really messed up now
[Chorus]
Am D
Too afraid to say it out loud
Em
I can barely breathe,
Dmaj7/F#
who'm I tryin' to be?
G Em
I'm still tryin' to figure it out
Am D
Man, I really messed up now
G C G
[Verse 2]
G C G
Clipped those wings and I came back home
C G
Tried my best just to carry on
Am D
Stickandpoke tattoos meant nothin' to me
Em C
As far as east to west and not a memory
Am G D/F#
Mm, mm
Am D
Man, I really messed up now
[Chorus]
Am D
Too afraid to say it out loud
Em
I can barely breathe,
Dmaj7/F#
who'm I tryin' to be?
G Em
I'm still tryin' to figure it out
Am D Am D
Am I too proud to say it out loud?
