Lyrics

Like a small boat

on the o cean

send ing big waves

in to mo tion.

Like how a sin gle (Em)word can make a heart o (C)pen,

I might on ly have (G)one match that I can make an ex plo sion.

And all those (G)things I did n’t say were wreck ing balls in side my (Em7)brain, and I will (G)scream ’em a loud to (C)night.

Can you (D)hear my voice this time?

(CN.C.)This is my (G)fight song, take back my (D)life song, prove I’m al (Em)right song.

My pow er’s (G)turned on.

Start ing right now, I’ll (D)be strong.

I’ll play my (Em)fight song.

And I (C)don’t real ly care if no bod y else be (Em)lieves

’cause (CN.C.)I’ve still got a lot of fight left in (G)me.

(Em)Los in’ friends and I’m chas in’ sleep.

(C)Ev ’ry bod y’s wor ried ’bout me, (G)in too deep,

say I’m (D)in too deep (in too deep).

It’s (Em)been two years.

I miss my home, but there’s a (C)fire burn in’ in my bones.

I (G)still be lieve, yeah, I (D)still be lieve.

And all of those (C)I’ve still got a lot of fight left in (Em)me,

a lot of fight left in (G)me.

Like a small (G)boat

on the o cean

send ing big waves

in to mo tion.

(D)Like how a sin gle (Em)word can make a heart o (C)pen.

I might on ly have (G)one match,

but I can make an ex (CN.C.)plo sion.

This is my (G)fight song, take back my (D)life song, prove I’m al (Em)right song.

My pow er’s (G)turned on.

Start ing right now, I’ll (D)be strong.

I’ll play my (Em)fight song.

And I (C)don’t real ly care if no bod y else be (G)lieves

’cause (D)I’ve still got a lot of fight left in (Em)me.

No, (C)I’ve still got a lot of fight left in (G)me.
