Intro: D C#/D G
ch /ch
At the start of the conversation
ch /ch
I didn't have too much to say
ch /ch
I was needing some inspiration
And you just got in my way
ch /ch
Took a shot at an easy target
ch /ch
You were too stunned to say anything
You were the unsuspecting martyr
You were not the most dangerous game
ch /ch
Bring my courage back now
Bring it back to me
ch /ch
Tired of being afraid of what I can't change
And I want to be living free
Instrumental
ch /ch
ch /ch
Well, it could be that I was mistaken
ch /ch
Maybe I deceived myself
ch /ch
But it's hard to understand somebody
ch /ch
Who doesn't want to understand himself
ch /ch
There's an ocean of unlatched windows.
ch /ch
And a world of unlocked homes
The only reason anybody can still feel safe
Is most people still knock on the door
ch /ch
Bring my courage back now
Bring it back to me
ch /ch
Tired of being afraid of what I can't change
And I want to be living free
I don't want to be a prisoner
Bound in these chains
I don't want to be a prisoner
I want to be free again
Though we all return to dust
There's a lot of us
In a terrible rush
ch /ch
Well, some take the road to Damascus
ch /ch
Some take the road to hell
I'll take highway one to the evergreens
ch /ch
And everything will turn out well
ch /ch
Bring my courage back now
Bring it back to me
ch /ch
Tired of being afraid of what I can't change
And I want to be living free
I don't want to be a prisoner
Bound in these chains
Slave to my fear
ch /ch
I want to be free again
ch /ch
I want to be free again
ch /ch
Outro: D C#/D G
