[ch]D[/ch]\r\nSo won't You take the lead, lead, lead[/tab]\r\n[tab]                    [ch]Em[/ch]\r\nAnd I could play the background, background[/tab]\r\n[tab]                      [ch]C[/ch]\r\nAnd you could take the lead[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 1]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nIt's evident you run the show, so let me back down[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nYou take the leading role, and I'll play the background[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Em[/ch]\r\nI know I miss my cues, know I forget my lines[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nI'm sticking to your script, and I'm reading all your signs[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nI don't need my name in lights, I don't need a starring role[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nWhy gain the whole wide world, If I'm just going lose my soul[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Em[/ch]\r\nAnd my ways ain't purified, don't live according to Your Word[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nI can't endure this life without Your wisdom being heard[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nSo word to every dancer, for a pop star[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\n'Cause we all play the background, but mine's a rockstar[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Em[/ch]\r\nYeah, so if you need me I'll be staged right[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nPraying the whole world will start embracing stage fright[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nSo let me fall back, stop giving my suggestions[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\n'Cause when I follow my obsessions, I end up confessing[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Em[/ch]\r\nThat I'm not that impressive, matter of fact[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nI'm who I are, a trail of stardust leading to the superstar[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Chorus]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nI could play the background[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nI could play the background[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Em[/ch]                       [ch]C[/ch]\r\n  Cause I know sometimes I get in the way[/tab]\r\n[tab]                     [ch]G[/ch]\r\nSo won't You take the lead, lead, lead[/tab]\r\n[tab]                     [ch]D[/ch]\r\nSo won't You take the lead, lead, lead[/tab]\r\n[tab]                    [ch]Em[/ch]\r\nAnd I could play the background,

soul[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nI was master of my fate, lost control. and then I sank[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Em[/ch]\r\nSo I don't want to take the lead, 'cause I'm prone to make mistakes[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nAll the folks who follow me, going end up in the wrong place[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nSo let me just shadow you, let me trace your lines[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nMatter of fact, just take my pen, here, you create my rhymes[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Em[/ch]\r\n'Cause if I do this by myself, I'm scared that I'll succeed[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nAnd no longer trust in you, 'cause I only trust in me[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd see, that's how you end up headed to destruction[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nPaving a road to nowhere, pour your life out for nothing[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Em[/ch]\r\nYou pulled my card, I'm bluffing, You know what's in my hand[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nMe, I'm just going to trust you, You cause the dice to land[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nI'm in control of nothing, follow you at any cost[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nSome call it sovereign will, all I know is you the boss[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Em[/ch]\r\nMan, I'm so at ease, I'm so content[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nI'll play the background, like it's an instrument[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Chorus](x2)\r\n\r\n[Bridge]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nI know I'm safest when I'm in Your will, and trust Your Word[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nI know I'm dangerous when I trust myself, my vision blurred[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Em[/ch]\r\nAnd I ain't got no time to play life's foolish games[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nGot plenty aims, but do they really Glorify Your name[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd it's a shame, the way I want to do these things for You[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nDon't even cling to you, take time to sit and gleam from You[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Em[/ch]\r\nSeems You were patient in my ignorance[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nIf ignorance is bliss, it's 'cause she never heard of
