Verse:
 
Am           F                   G  
    I met a prophet dark as the night 
           C     G    Am 
She could see into my soul 
                 F                      G  
Said she'd been watching and had some advice 
          C       G        Am  
She said shadows make you whole 

                F                          G 
A life without pain is a wolf in sheep's clothes 
              C     G      Am      Em      F 
Cause if you listen to the lessons that it holds 
                 G 
You'll find the gold 



 C          G   Am            Em 
Child it's time to break the shell 
 F            Em            F           G 
Life's gonna hurt but it's meant to be felt 
        C             G       Am         Em 
You cannot touch the sky from inside yourself 
F          Em   F         G         C 
You cannot fly until you break the shell 


Verse: 

Am          F                   G 
   I can remember when I was a child 
         C           G         Am 
How the grown folks seemed so crazy 
                 F                      G 
Why are they so angry, why are they so loud ? 
            C              G               Am 
And when I grow up that's never ever gonna be me 

              F               G 
That was the moment that I decide 
              C       G         Am     Em       F 
That I would build a wall just shy of six feet tall 
               G 
Too strong to fall 



 C          G   Am            Em 
Child it's time to break the shell 
 F            Em            F           G 
Life's gonna hurt but it's meant to be felt 
        C             G        Am        Em 
You cannot touch the sky from inside yourself 
F          Em   F         G         C 
You cannot fly until you break the shell 


Bridge: 

F                        C 
   Courage is not being hard 
              Em 
It's time to peel back all of the layers 
    Am                              D 
You put between who you're meant to be 
            F 
And who you are 
                  Fm 
And go be who you are 


Verse: 

Am               F                         G 
   So much disappointment to finally understand 
              C        G       Am 
That there is no such thing as perfect 

                 F                      G 
Were all simply doing the best that we can 
               C         G      Am    Em   F 
And we have a choice to live or truly be alive 
 G            C 
This is your life

It's time for us to be for real

You'll be stuck on the ground until 
Am           G         C 
You finally break the shell
