[Intro]
D/F# A/E
D
[Verse 1]
D/F#
I was hoping for an indication
A/E
I was seeking higher elevation
D Dmaj7
(Ay, Ay, Ay. Ay, Ay Ay.)
Bm
I've been shaken wakin' in the night light
A
I've been breakin' hiding from the spotlight
D Dmaj7
(Ay, Ay, Ay. Ay, Ay Ay.)
[Pre-Chorus]
G
The more I stay the less I fear
G D Dmaj7
And the more I reach the more I fade awaaaaaay
G
The darkness right in front of me
G A
Oh it's calling out and I won't walk awaaaaaay
[Chorus]
D
I would always open up the door
A
Always looking up at higher floors
Bm G
Want to see it all give me more (rise, rise up)
D
I was always up for the making changes
A
Walking down the streets meeting strangers
Bm G
Flipping through my life turning pages (rise, rise up)
[Verse 2]
D
Like a prayer that only needs a reason
A
Like a hunter waiter for the season
Bm
(Ay, Ay, Ay. Ay, Ay Ay.)
D
I was there but I was always leavin'
A
I believe that I was never breathin'
Bm G
(Ay, Ay, Ay. Ay, Ay Ay.)
[Pre-Chorus]
G
The more I stay the less I fear
G D Dmaj7
And the more I reach the more I fade awaaaaaay
G
The darkness right in front of me
G A
Oh it's calling out and I won't walk awaaaaaay
[Chorus]
D
I would always open up the door
A
Always looking up at higher floors
Bm G
Want to see it all give me more (rise, rise up)
D
I was always up for the making changes
A
Walking down the streets meeting strangers
Bm G
Flipping through my life turning pages (rise, rise up)
[Bridge]
D A G
I'm bursting like the fourth of July
D A G
So color me and blow me away
D A G
I'm broken in the prime of my life
D A G
So embrace it and leave me to stray
[Chorus]
D
I would always open up the door
A
Always looking up at higher floors
Bm G
Want to see it all give me more (rise, rise up)
D
I was always up for the making changes
A
Walking down the streets meeting strangers
Bm G
Flipping through my life turning pages (rise, rise up)
D
I would always open up the door
A
Always looking up at higher floors
Bm G
Want to see it all give me more (rise, rise up)

Walking down the streets meeting strangers

Flipping through my life turning pages (rise, rise up)
