Gm F             C   D#
I  wish I was smarter
Gm        F             C  D#
I got so lost on the shore
Gm F            C   D#
I  wish I was taller
Gm       F            C   C
Things really matter to me

Chorus:
    D#                 D7
But I put my face in tomorrow
A#                    F7
I believe we're not alone
D#           D7
I believe in Beatles
A#                             C
I believe my little soul has grown
         D#         C 
And I'm still so afraid
         D#         C  C
Yes, I'm still so afraid
          D#         F
Yea, I'm still so afraid
      Gm F  C  D#
On my own
      Gm F  C  D#
On my own

What made my life so wonderful?
What made me feel so bad?
I used to wake up the ocean
I used to walk on clouds

Chorus:
If I put faith in medication
If I can smile a crooked smile
If I can talk on television
If I can walk an empty mile
Then I won't feel afraid
No, I won't feel afraid
I won't be, be afraid
Anymore
Anymore
Anymore
