Feeling my way through the darkness
       Em                C            GN.C. 
Guided by a beating heart 
       Em                C             GN.C.
I can't tell where the journey will end 
       Em                C             GN.C.
But I know where it starts 
EmThey tell Cme I'm too youGng to undersDtand,
