verse 1: 
G            D 
Cast out to sea 
                  Em 
Drifting with the tide 
                 C 
And no way of finding me 
G             D 
Now that I'm free 
                  Em 
Nothing but blue skies 
              C 
Paradise in front of me 
Pre-Chorus 
D      G         C 
Awake from this dream 
D  G            C* 
I hold my breath and just believe 
Chorus: 
G 
Tired of all the troubles 
They been wasting my time 
D 
I don't wanna fight 
Gonna leave it behind 
Em 
Taking on faith 
Now I'm ready to fly 
C 
I'm in the middle of starting over 
G 
Back to the beginning 
Gonna hit rewind 
D 
Chance to do it over 
To get it right this time 
Em 
Life gives you pennies 
Turn them into dimes 
C 
I'm in the middle of starting over

verse 2: 
G            D 
Alone, in a room 
                 Em 
Tearing down the walls 
               C 
Painting over scars and bruises 
G             D 
Now, this is home 
                Em 
Fill it up with love 
                         C 
And make the best of something new, yeah 
Pre-Chorus 
D       G       C 
As hard as it seems 
D  G           C* 
I hold my breath and just believe 
Chorus: 
G  
Tired of all the troubles 
They been wasting my time 
D 
I don't wanna fight 
Gonna leave it behind
