 E       A             E  A
Something is about to give
I can feel it coming
I think I know what it is
I'm not afraid to die
I'm not afraid to live
And when I'm flat on my back
I hope to feel like I did

     A
And hardness, it sets in
                 C#m
You need some protection
                  A
The thinner the skin

Chorus:
E               A
I want you to know,
     C#m                   A
That you don't need me anymore
E               A
I want you to know,
               C#m                    A
You don't need anyone, or anything at all.

Chorus:
E
Who's to say where the wind will take you
B
Who's to say what it is will break you
A
I don't know, which way the wind will blow.
E
Who's to know when the time is come around
B                        A
Don't want to see your cry,
                             E
I know that this is not goodbye.

        E                      A
In the summer I can taste the salt of the sea
           E                       A
There's a kite blowing out of control on the breeze
   E                   A
I wonder what's gonna happen to you
     E
You wonder what has happened to me.

       E  B            A
I'm a man, I'm not a child.
       E        B         A
I'm a man, who sees the shadow behind your eyes

Chorus

Did I waste it?
Not so much I couldn't taste it
Life should be fragrant
Roof top to the basement
The last of the rock stars
When hip hop drove the big cars
In the time when new media
Was the big idea
That was the big idea
