Intro - (C7M/E  C7M/D   C   C ) 2X

C7M/E  C7M/D     C
   Too young to fall for a 
C7M/E          C7M/D                C
Light I think I see, can't say for sure 
C7M/E              C7M/D               C
   The plants have died, my hair has grown 
*C7M/E       C7M/D                 C
   From the thought of you coming home 

Chorus:
F7M                  C
   'Cause it ain't easier 
Dm               Am      C              Dm
   Waking up at dawn to find I lost my crown 
Dm                 Am          C              Dm
   If I found you there with flowers in your hair 
Dm                     Am     C                Dm
   I'd hold you in my arms until we came back down 
Dm                  Am            C          Dm
   A smile that explodes I could never understand

C7M/E C7M/D       C
   My room, too small 
      C7M/E          C7M/D         C
To get by without the help of alcohol 
C7M/E    C7M/D        C
   Pin my arm to the wall 
   C7M/E            C7M/D                 C
Now I'm too gone to fight, not afraid to fall

C7M/E C7M/D      C
    I write one more 
    *C7M/E           C7M/D                  C
Letter I won't send except for across the floor
