I am hungry
B           Emmaj7
I have been hungry

I was born hungry
A           Emaj9  
What do I need?

I am something
I have been something
I was born something
What could I be?

Chorus:
B          D#         E      B
There is a light that I can see
E             B                   Emmaj7     F#
But only, it seems, when there's darkness in me
B                       Emmaj7     D#m  
There is a dream that I sometimes see
     G#m                           B
That only appears in the dark of sleep
 D#m   C#   Em
Ooh,  ooh, ooh

Bsus4
I am waiting
B           Bsus4
I have been waiting
F#
I was born waiting
E          F#
I was born waiting

B
For that something
E          E   B
Just one something
G#m          B  
I was born something
G#m    F#
I was born

Chorus:
B          D#        E          B
There is a light, I feel it in me
    E         B               G#m           F#add4
But only, it seems, when the dark surrounds me
B           D#            E       D#7
There is a dream and it sleeps in me
     B          Bsus4          Bsus2   Bm
To awake in the night, crying "Set me free"
       B          Em             E      B
And I wake every night, crying "Set me free"
