Am F
[Verse 1]
Am
As the sun comes up, as the moon goes down
F
These heavy notions creep around
Am F
It makes me think, long ago
Am
I was brought into this life a little lamb
F
A little lamb
Am
Courageous, stumbling
F
Fearless was my middle name
[Pre-Chorus]
D
But somewhere there I lost my way
C
Everyone walks the same
D
Expecting me to step
C
The narrow path they've laid
They claim to
[Chorus]
Em G
Walk unafraid
Em G
I'll be clumsy instead
Em G D
Hold my love or leave me high
[Verse 2]
Am
Say "keep within the boundaries if you want to play."
F
if you want to play."
Am F
Say "contradiction only makes it harder."
Am
How can I be
F
What I want to be?
Am F
When all I want to do is strip away
F

[Pre-Chorus]
D

C
Shred this sad masquerade
D
I don't need no persuading
C
I'll trip, fall, pick myself up and
[Chorus]
Em G
Walk unafraid
Em G
I'll be clumsy instead
Em G D
Hold my love or leave me high
Am
[Verse 3]
Am
If I have a bag of rocks
F
to carry as I go
Am F
I just want to hold my head up high
Am F
I don't care what I have to step over
Am F
I'm prepared to look you in the eye
[Pre-Chorus]
F
Look me in the eye
D C
And if you see familiarity
D
Then celebrate the contradiction
C
Help me when I fall to
[Chorus]
Em G
Walk unafraid
Em G
I'll be clumsy instead
Em G D
Hold my love or leave me high
Em G
Walk unafraid
Em G
I'll be clumsy instead
Em G D
Hold my love or leave me high
[Outro]
Em G
Em G
Em G D
