D                                  D
Today I took a walk in the clouds, today I took a walk in the clouds
                Bm                   G               D
Used to keep my eyes wide shut, but now I'm staring down
D                                  D
Today I felt a switch in my vein, today I felt a switch in my vein
G             Bm           G               D
Used to be a shadow now a shadow scream my name
G             Bm             G
And in the daylight I could swear, we're the same

(G)                                     
But I'm just an ordinary human, ordinary ways
                     Bm                 G                D
I'm just an ordinary human but I don't feel so ordinary today

(D)                                 
I'm just a picture perfect nothing, sometimes I medicate
                           Bm              G             D
I'll be a picture perfect human before the sun goes down today
