Capo 6
[Verse 1]
GStanding here in the rain, I can see the water sAmoaking through
The holeCs in your shoes
And turn Gyour mind from the storm, Get you somewhere safAme
Where it's Csoft and warm
I'm waGiting here at a dim street light, Orange daAmnces around in your empCty eyes
And I cGan see straight into your soul, Feeling oh so losAmt and out of controlC??.OhD  
[Chorus]
CShine
If your Gheart tells you to then Dwho are you to question it
CShine
If the wGorld gets you down don't be Dafraid to wrestle it
CShine
You have your wholGe life ahead of you, Come mDake a mess of it
CShine
If your Gheart tells you to then Dwho are you to question it C   D  
Who are you to question it
[Verse 2]
GTired now, feeling scared, Unfamiliar light floods into tAmhe room
You have wokCen to
GHopeful eyes looking out, As you wait aAmlone
Hiding tCears of doubt
Not holGding back as you realize, Your abandonmentAm  
You'll be casCt aside
And I cGan see straight into your soul, Feeling oh so lost Amand out of controlC  D  
Whoa oh
[Chorus]
CShine
If your Gheart tells you to then Dwho are you to question it
CShine
If the woGrld gets you down don't be afraid to wresDtle it
CShine
You have your whGole life ahead of you, Come Dmake a mess of it
CShine
If your Gheart tells you to then Dwho are you to question itC  D  
Who are you to question itC  
[Bridge]
EmHold my hand when the lights Cgo down
And you're feelGing scared but no one understandsEm  C  
Whoa ohG  
EmKeep your head up and don'Ct look down
I'll guiGde your steps to keep you on the groundEm  C  
Whoa ohG  
Your love is strAmong
And they just don't desCerve
To choose where you belongG  
[Chorus]
CShine
If your Gheart tells you to then Dwho are you to question it
CShine
If the wGorld gets you down don't be Dafraid to wrestle it
CShine
You have your wholGe life ahead of you, Come mDake a mess of it
CShine
If your Gheart tells you to then Dwho are you to question itC  D  
Who are you to question itG
