*E      *E7               A         >B
feel it falling off like clothing
*E        *E7             A        >B
taste it rolling on your tounge
*E      *E7               A        >B
see the lights above you glowing
       *E           *E7             A
oh and breathe them deep into your lungs

B                    A
it was always simple, not hidden hard
            B
you've been pulling at the strings
        G#m
playing puppeteer for kings
     A                 >B
and you've had enough

         E          B
but the search ends here
          A                       >B
where the night is totally clear
         E          B
and your heart is fierce
           A                      A 
so now you finally know that you control where you go
    *E
you can steer.



so hold this feeling like a newborn
of freedom surging through your veins
you have opened up a new door
so bring on the wind, fire and rain


it was always simple, not hidden hard
you've been playing at a game
called remembering you name
and you stuffed it up


but the search ends here
where the night is totally clear
and your heart is fierce
                                  A
so now you finally know that you control where you go
    *B    *C#m  *A
you can steer.
