    GIt's as if you could find mD/F#e anywhere
That I could Emgo, to try to hide my tD/F#houghts from yGou
But just like some ruD/F#naway I'm leaving here
With half a mEmind that hopes, of getting D/F#caught
So we can just dGrive home in the dark where we'll let D/F#our (our) feelings fly
(They'll) They'll cut lEmike shame to break me D/F#down again
Until there's notGhing left D/F#but for me to tell Emyou I'm sorrD/F#y
[Chorus]
But I dont wanna go Ghome now
Stuck here in the middle D/F#alone now
Everybody's singing their Emsong now
But I'm still reeliD/F#ng
I'm not trying to run aGway from
This beautiful life I've been D/F#given

[Intro]

G D/F# Em D/F#

[Verse]

G D/F#

It's as if you could find me anywhere

Em D/F# G

That I could go, to try to hide my thoughts from you

D/F#

But just like some runaway I'm leaving here

Em D/F#

With half a mind that hopes, of getting caught

G D/F#

So we can just drive home in the dark where we'll let our (our) feelings fly

Em D/F#

(They'll) They'll cut like shame to break me down again

G D/F# Em D/F#

Until there's nothing left but for me to tell you I'm sorry

[Chorus]

But I dont wanna go home now

D/F#

Stuck here in the middle alone now

Everybody's singing their song now

D/F#

But I'm still reeling

I'm not trying to run away from

D/F#

This beautiful life I've been given

I'm not looking for freedom

D/F#

Maybe just a little meaning

G D/F# Em D/F#

Here in the Middle

[Verse]

G D/F#

It's as if there's a world uncovered by

Em D/F# G

The break of day all these miles away but for a better view

D/F#

Of what's left in the aftermath of all these years

Em D/F#

It's just so hard to know who I am in you

[Chorus]

But I dont wanna go home now

D/F#

Stuck here in the middle alone now

Everybody's singing their song now

I'm not trying to run away from

This beautiful life I've been given

I'm not looking for freedom

Maybe just a little meaning

Here in the Middle

[Bridge]

C D/F#

Alright, everybody says I'll be alright

Everybody says it's a good fight

D/F#

I'm not seeing it now

All I know is I swear this

It feels a little more like a secret

And I don't know if I should just keep it

To myself, but my Love, my Love

[Chorus]

But I dont wanna go home now

D/F#

Stuck here in the middle alone now

Everybody's singing their song now

D/F#

But I'm not ready

I'm not trying to run away from

D/F#

This beautiful life I've been given

I'm not looking for freedom

D/F#

Maybe just a little meaning
