      C
We forget
                             G
we fall and we're full of regret
           C6                                Fmaj7
you can say what you want when your heart
                               C
is controlled by your head

         C
I felt so low
                          G
winded by a softened blow
           C6                  Fmaj7
but I won't even think about it
                                          C
because it always gets better with time


CHORUS:

     Am                             C                           Fmaj7   *
You wake up one day and you don't recognize your face
     Am                      C                  Fmaj7
and home is a place that feels so far away
  Am                    C                      Fmaj7
I felt like I lost myself, but I lost my place
   Am                       Fmaj7                          C
so I'll keep walking and I'll get a little closer every day

C   G   C6   Fmaj7   C

You're a silhouette
you fail and feel too upset
though I'm not sure what it is you'd expect
Just a shape I haven't colored in yet

I felt so slow
guided by a nameless glow
and a fortune I knew long ago
in a field full of flightless crows

You wake up one day and you don't recognize your face
and home is a place that feels so far away
I felt like I lost myself, I just lost my place
so I'll keep walking and I'll get a little closer every day
