[VERSE 1]~
F#m          C#m    D
I was born   in a thunderstorm

F#m       C#m    D
I grew up overnight

F#m          C#m
I played alone,

              D             Am
I'm playing on my own, I survived, hey

F#m           C#m         D
I wanted ev - erything I never had,

F#m             C#m          D
like the love   that comes with life

F#m         C#m        D
I wore En - vy and I hated that,

            C#
but I survived.


[PRE-CHORUS]~
        F#m                 C#m             D
I had a one-way ticket to a place where all the demons go

          F#m                   C#m                  D
where the wind don't change and nothing in the ground can ever grow,

   F#m                        C#m           D
No hope, just lies and you're taught to cry in your pillow,

            C#
but I'll survive.

[VERSE 2]~
F#m        C#m       D
I found solace in the strangest place,

F#m               C#m      D
way in the back   of my mind.

F#m      C#m        D                C#
I saw my life in a stranger's face  and it was mine.


[PRE-CHORUS]~
        F#m                C#m                D
I had a one-way ticket to a   place where all the demons go

          F#m                   C#m                  D
where the wind don't change and nothing in the ground can ever grow,
