Capo 2


A                      D             A
Five is the first one, fifteen's the worst
    A                           D            A
The years that I remember fly behind me in a blur
A                      D                A
Thirteen took forever, sixteen wouldn't end
A                                 E              A
Twenty nine's the perfect time to start all over again

                 
Chorus:
A                                         D
Time is changing, rearranging my point of view
E                                          D              A  
All these years of something, well they're finally coming through
    A
The curtains are rising thread by thread
   D                A                  E    D     A
My eyes see for the first time since before I was dead

                 
I've lived a lot of lessons and I've learned from a few
And I've tried my best to separate the fiction from the truth
Held my breath and sank down to the bottom of the sea
I came back up to the surface for another look at me

Chorus
                 

Bridge:
F#m          D
I'm standing on the side
    B7                 A
The time has come to decide

                 
I could follow like a footstep or walk out on the sand
Leave a little something or give up all I can
Separate my reasons from the things I need to do
The next day will be tomorrow whichever road I choose


Chorus
