CAPO 4th fret
        C          Em
[Intro] -----------
[Verse 1]
   C
This town is colder now, I think it's sick of us
   Em
It's time to make our move, I'm shakin' off the rust
  C
I've got my heart set on anywhere but here
   Em                                    Am
I'm staring down myself, counting up the years
                              F
Steady hands, just take the wheel
                          Am
And every glance is killing me
                  F
Time to make one last appeal for the life I lead
[Chorus]
  C
Stop and stare
                         G
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
                     Am
Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared
                        F        F    G
But I've become what I can't be, oh
 C
Stop and stare
                                 G
You start to wonder why you're 'here' not 'there'
                           Am
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
                              F
But fair ain't what you really need
F                       C
Oh, can you see what I see?
[Verse 2]
C
They're tryin' to come back, all my senses push
Em                               Am
Untie the weight bags, I never thought I could
F
Steady feet, don't fail me now
Am
Imma run till you can't walk
C
Something pulls my focus out
Em
And I'm standing down
[Chorus]
 C
Stop and stare
                         G
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
                  Am
Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared
                        F       F    G
                                   ( -Optional)
But I've become what I can't be, oh
 C
Stop and stare
                                 G
You start to wonder why you're 'here' not 'there'
                            Am
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
                         F
But fair ain't what you really need
G             C
Oh, you don't need
    Em       Am        F
    Oh       Oh        Oooooo
                G
What you need, what you need, what you need
