Am

Am

Trying on a brand new dress

But you haven't worn the old one yet.

F Am

You've come too far, to turn around now.

Giving up the good fight.

You're as strong as anyone.

F

You're back where you started from,

I see you're back where you started from.

Dm,C

(Chorus:)

C Em F

Staring down the stars, jealous of the moon

Dm G

You wish you could fly.

C Em

But you're staying where you are,

F

there's nothing you can do,

Dm G

if you're too scared to try.

Am

Am

Drag your pretty head around

F

Swearing you're gonna drown with a beautiful sigh and a river of lies.

Dm,C

(Chorus)

E

E Am

Why don't you call me, I could save you.

E F Am

Together we'll find a god we can pray to that will take you by the hand.

Am

I hate to see a friend of mine,

F

Laughing out loud when she's crying inside,

but you've got your pride.

Dm,C

(Chorus)

C Em

You're staring down the stars,

C Em

You stay where you are,

C Em F Dm G

You're jealous of the moon, but there's nothing you can do if you're too scared to try,

Dm G

If you're too scared to try.

Am
