Lyrics

[Intro]
| C | - |

[Verse 1]
C
 I need peace, I need hope,
I need guidance
I need more than myself
I need light, I need life,
              G
I need what I never felt

[Pre-Chorus]
Am          G            Fmaj7
Sisters and brothers are picking sides
    Am          G           Fmaj7
And both of our mothers are terrified
    Am         G         Fmaj7
And I'm crying out to an empty sky
Dm/A C G
Tell   me
                   C
If I hit the ground

[Chorus]
                Fmaj7 C  G
And I fall down to    my knees
                         C
Would you hear the sound?
              Fmaj7 C    G
Am I crazy to think that we
                  C
Could make it out?
             Fmaj7 C
Am I crazier to    believe
                        G
There's a middle ground?

[Verse 2]
C
 I'm so up, I'm so down, I'm so broken
I'm so tired, I can't sleep
I'm not mine, I'm not yours,
                G
I'm not sure of anything

[Pre-Chorus]
   Am          G            Fmaj7
Oh sisters and brothers are picking sides
    Am            G            Fmaj7
And both of our mothers are terrified
    Am         G         Fmaj7
And I'm crying out to an empty sky
Dm/A C G
Tell   me
                   C
If I hit the ground

[Chorus]
                Fmaj7 C  G
And I fall down to    my knees
                         C
Would you hear the sound?
              Fmaj7 C    G
Am I crazy to think that we
                  C
Could make it out?
             Fmaj7 C
Am I crazier to    believe
There's a middle ground?

[Bridge]
Am
  Middle ground, there's a middle ground
        Fmaj7
I don't need someone to love
       Dm/A
I just need someone to live for
Am
  Middle ground, there's a middle ground
      Fmaj7
On my knees where I belong
       G
Please tell me
                   C
If I hit the ground

[Chorus]
                Fmaj7 C  G
And I fall down to    my knees
                         C
Would you hear the sound?
              Fmaj7 C    G
Am I crazy to think that we
                       C
Could ever make it out?
             Fmaj7 C G
Am I crazier to    believe
There's a middle ground?
C
 Middle ground, there's a middle
        Fmaj7 C G
Crazier to    believe there's a middle ground?
C
 Middle ground, there's a middle
           Fmaj7 C G
I need you to    believe, oh,
G
 there's a middle ground
