[Verse]
    Am7
My body
         C/B             C    C/B
Is being held up by a string
       Am7
Blood stains on my pillow
      C/B             C    C/B
Just another bloody nose
      Am7
Your eyes illuminated
      C/B                  C    C/B
And suddenly I'm stuck naked
      Am7
Lost my breath on the bathroom floor
           C/B            C      C/B         Am7
And now I'm back again to exactly how I was before.

[Chorus]
        Am7
And I'm one step closer to exposure,
        G5/C#
but I'm still on top in mind closure
       Am7
I'm a lion in a zoo
           G5/C#
And in the end it all comes back to you
            Am7                 G5/C#
And I would said that I'm growin', as I step onto the stage
                                     Am7
and ooh the lights are glowing in my face
            G5/C#
This is my place,
             Am7
This is my place.

[Verse]
   Am7
And I run my fingers through the wind
          C/B            C       C/B             Am7
And as I close my eyes I begin to sing about the stories of our elders.
        C/B                      C       C/B
And the shells on the beach as I wash my feet
       Am7
In the cool, sweet, ocean where nobody goes
        C/B                             C       C/B
Cuz the surface is too deep, there is no inbetween
         Am7
Then you run your cold fingers down my hips
C/B                               C                                  C/B

And I found myself staring at your ruby lips

[Chorus]
        Am7
And I'm one step closer to exposure,
        G5/C#
but I'm still up top in mind closure
      Am7
I'm a blossom on a tree
           G5/C#
And in the end it all comes back to me
            Am7                   G5/C#
And I would said I'm growin', as I step onto the stage

[Verse]
        Am7
And I'm one step closer to moving over
        C/B            C       C/B
But I'm still locked up in mind closure
        Am7
I'm a tumbleweed in the breeze
                C/B                C       C/B
But you could never even think of fucking out me
         Am7
Cuz I'm loud and I'm strong, I know just where I belong
 C/B
I'm a fighter, I'm a lion
          C         C/B         Am7
I've been here all along
           C/B            C       C/B    Am7
This is my place
            C/B            C       C/B
This is my place
