Fmaj7

[Intro]

[Verse]

Can't put out the fire with my bare hands

Not even I need to understand how

G Fmaj7

I'm getting there

Said a prayer with broken wings

Hoping to move toward greater things now

G Fmaj7

And face the fear

[Chorus]

That I'm driftin'

Closer toward the skyline

Fmaj7

Lookin' down on my life

Am G

Tryin' to get just one thing right

C G

The second I start second guessing

Fmaj7

Let go like a confession

Am G Fmaj7

Seeing what I was born to find

G C

Flying for the first time

[Verse]

I was the kind who played it safe

Wouldn't take a risk or leap of faith not

G Fmaj7

Before the leap?

Fear has a way of playing games

Go all in or go your separate ways

G Fmaj7

But as for me

[Chorus]

I'm driftin'

Closer toward the skyline

Fmaj7

Lookin' down on my life

Am G

Tryin' to get just one thing right

C G

The second I start second guessing

Fmaj7

Let go like a confession

Am G Fmaj7

Seeing what I was born to find

G Dm

Flying for the first time

[Instrumental]

Dm Am G

[Bridge]

Dm Am

Led to the open flame

G Dm

Barely escaped

Now I'll never be the same

[Chorus]

I'm driftin'

Closer toward the skyline

Fmaj7

Lookin' down on my life

Am G

Tryin' to get just one thing right

C G

The second I start second guessing

Fmaj7

Let go like a confession

Am G

Seeing what I was born

[Chorus]

I'm driftin'

Closer toward the skyline

Fmaj7

Lookin' down on my life

Am G

Tryin' to get just one thing right

C G

The second I start second guessing

Fmaj7

Let go like a confession

Am G Fmaj7

Seeing what I was born to find

Flying for the first time

I put out the fire with my bare hands
