CAPO ON 3
Intro-
Bm
BmWhen the day iAs done
The weight is on my Emmind
BmHow should I give Aup?
How should I surEmvive?Bm  
Leaning to the Aside of the busy Emstreet
Looking down these Dpeople
Never notice Bmme
                                         A       Em-stop
Am I the only one who thinks it’s hard to breathe?
 BmI feel it’s hard to Asay what’s on my Emmind
 BmI feel it’s hard to Asay what’s not inEmside
You Bmthink your fight is DoverA  
It’s only Emso much closerBm  
                       A    Em-stop
I reach my hands to the sky
And flyBm  A  Em  D  Bm  A  Em  
  BmTwo thousand Afaces here but who am EmI?
  BmAm I the only Aone with a reason to Emhide?
BmSearching through a Amaze only to Emfind another wall to Dbreak
Another wall to Bmclimb
                                     A    Em-stop
It’s when I lose myself and then I realize
 BmI feel it’s hard to Asay what’s on my Emmind
