I Stand

Intro: E C D E (2x)

         E   C
When you ask me
D     E
Who I am
E          C
What is my vision
D    E
Do I have a plan
E           C
Where is my strength
       D          E
Have I nothing to say
  E        C
I hear the words in my head
D                 E
But I push them away

CHORUS:
C                       D
  Cause I stand for the power to change
Bm               C
  I live for the perfect day
C                D
  I love till it hurts like crazy
Bm             C
  I hope for a hero to save me
C                    D
  I stand for the strange and lonely
Bm                    C
  I believe there’s a better place
C                     D
  I don’t know if the sky is heaven
Bm              Am
  But I pray anyway

(The same as the first verse)
And I don’t know what tomorrow brings
The road less traveled
Will it set us free?
Cause we’re taking it slow
These tiny legacies
I don’t try and change the world
But what will you make of me

I stand for the power to change
I live for the perfect day
I love till it hurts like crazy
I hope for a hero to save me
I stand for the strange and lonely
I believe there’s a better place
I don’t know if the sky is heaven
But I pray anyway

         E
With the slightest of breezes
    G
We fall just like leaves
        D                        C
As the rain washes us from the ground
       E
We forget who we are
          G
We can’t see in the dark
        D                        C
And we quickly get lost in the crowd

      E   C   D   E   E   C   D   E
Ohhh....

C                       D
  Cause I stand for the power to change
Bm               C
  I live for the perfect day
C                D
  I love till it hurts like crazy
Bm             C
  I hope for a hero to save me

C                       D
  Cause I stand for the power to change
Bm               C
  I live for the perfect day
C                D
  I love till it hurts like crazy
Bm             C
  I hope for a hero to save me
C                    D
  I stand for the strange and lonely
Bm                    C
  I believe there’s a better place
C                     D
  I don’t know if the sky is heaven
Bm              Am
  But I pray anyway
