Em
Clipped wings, I was a broken thing
C
Had a voice, had a voice but I could not sing
G
You would wind me down
D
I struggled on the ground
Em
So lost, the line had been crossed
C
Had a voice, had a voice but I could not talk
G
You held me down
D
I struggle to fly now
Pre-Chorus:
Em
But there’s a scream inside that we are frightened
C
We hold on so tight, we cannot deny
G D
Eats us alive, oh it eats us alive
Em
Yes, there’s a scream inside that we are frightened
C G
We hold on so tight, but I don’t wanna die, no
D
I don’t wanna die, I don’t wanna die
Chorus:
Em
I’m not gon’ care if I sing off key
C
I find myself in my melodies
G
I sing for love, I sing for me
D
I shout it out like a bird set free
Em
No I don’t care if I sing off key
C
I find myself in my melodies
G
I sing for love, I sing for me
D Em C G
I’ll shout it out like a bird set free
D Em C G
I’ll shout it out like a bird set free
D
I’ll shout it out like a bird set free
Verse II:
Em
Now I fly, hit the high notes
C
I have a voice, have a voice, hear me roar tonight
G
You held me down
D
But I fought back loud
Pre-Chorus:
Em
But there’s a scream inside that we are frightened
C
We hold on so tight, we cannot deny
G D
Eats us alive, oh it eats us alive
Em
Yes, there’s a scream inside that we are frightened
C G
We hold on so tight, but I don’t wanna die, no
D
I don’t wanna die, I don’t wanna die
Chorus:
Em
I’m not gon’ care if I sing off key
C
I find myself in my melodies
G
I sing for love, I sing for me
D
I shout it out like a bird set free
Em
No I don’t care if I sing off key
C
I find myself in my melodies
G
I sing for love, I sing for me
D Em C G
I’ll shout it out like a bird set free
D Em C G
I’ll shout it out like a bird set free
D Em C G
I’ll shout it out like a bird set free
