Lyrics

(Bb)When did life be come so (Dm)com pli ca ted?

(Gm)Years of too much thought and (Dm)time I wast ed.

And in each line up on my (Bb)face

is (Cm7)proof I fought and (Eb)lived an oth er (Fsus4)day.

(Bb)When did life be come this (Dm)place of mad ness?

(Gm)Drift ing on an emp ty sea of (Dm)waves of sad ness.

I make be lieve I’m in con (Bb)trol

and (Cm7)dream it was n’t all my fault.

(F)When your (Bb)feet don’t touch the ground

and your (Gm)world’s turned up side down,

here it’s safe

in this place

a bove the clouds.

(F)When your (Bb)feet don’t touch the earth

you can’t (Gm)feel the things that hurt

and you’re free,

there’s no need

to come down.

(Bb)Ev ’ry day just feels a (Dm)lit tle long er.

Why am I the on ly one not get ting strong er?

Run ning ’round pre tend ing life’s a play,

it does n’t make the dark ness go a way.

I may be young but I can still re mem ber feel ing full of joy, cry ing tears of laugh ter.

Now all my tears are all cried out,

make be lieve but count me out.

’Cause my (Bb)feet don’t touch the ground

and your (Gm)world’s turned up side down,

here it’s safe

in this place

a bove the clouds.

(F)When your (Bb)feet don’t touch the earth

you can’t (Gm)feel the things that hurt

and you’re free,

there’s no need

to come down.

(G)feet are on the ground

and the (Em)in ner voice I found,

tells the (C)truth,

there’s no use if your head’s in the clouds.

(Em)I was once like (Bm)you,

(C)life was a (G)maze,

(Am)I could n’t find my (Bm)way out.

But (F#m)what I say is (C#m)true,

(D)you’ll be a (A)mazed,

(Bm7)make be lieve and you will (D)find out that it’s (E)true.

When your (B)feet don’t touch the ground

and your (G#m)voice won’t make a sound,

here it’s safe,

in this place

a bove the clouds.

When your (B)feet don’t touch the earth

you can’t (G#m)feel the things that hurt

and you’re free,

there’s no need

to come down.

When your (E5)feet don’t touch the ground,

when your feet don’t touch the ground.
