Bm5                                        Bm5 D5  G5  A5
Why, you wanna tell me how to live my life?

Standing on the ledge, show the wind how to fly.

Bm5                                             Bm5 D5  G5  A5
We're living in a broken home of hopes and dreams, 
 
 
[Bridge]
 
Bm5
Let me be the first to shake ya helping hand. 
D5
Everybody, pray enough to take a stand,

I knocked on every door, on every dead end street, 
G5
Looking for forgiveness, 
What's left to believe?
