D Bm C G
ohhh
D Bm
when i woke up i was 17
C
you kissed my lips in a bad bad dream
G
showed me things aren’t what they appear to be
D
called me angel and set me free
Bm
you gave me life in the cold cold dark
C
but you ran away in the mornings spark
G ( hold )
made me think that reality

is not where i want to be

Bm
i Am what i Am and
Em G ( hold )
i Am what i Am afraid of

oh what Am i afraid of

D

Bm
don’t need to fear the end
G

A
you will never hold me again

i want to live my life
Bm
pursuing all my happiness
G
i want a fearless love
A D

D Bm
i’ve walked my path had worlds collide
C
i lost my way and i fooled my pride
G ( hold )
this lover’s ache wouldn’t feel so strange

if i could only change

Bm

Em G ( hold )
i Am what i Am afraid of
