G                       A 
Look up at the starry night sky 
                        C 
And down at the dirty ground. 
                        Em 
This world would be so beautiful 
       D/F#              G 
If it weren’t for right now. 
                         A 
The small of my back is sore. 
                    C 
My arms they burn galore. 

My legs that are glued to 
    Em                    D/F# 
My feet so blistered and bruised 
              G   A    Em 
From walking… in your shoes. 




D/F#    C 
I    promise that I’ll be 
G  A   Em  D/F#   C 
Everything they wanted me to be. 
    G    A   Em   D/F#   C 
But oh, dear God, it’s tearing me apart. 
       G    A   Em D/F#  C      Cm 
This world that we live in… is done. 



G 
No I won’t let this go. 
                 Em 
I won’t let them take control 
   A       C      G 
Of my life as we know. 

I’m completely aware 
                        Em 
That where I’m from is just one tiny 
  A         C       G 
Glimpse of hell I live. 



                             A 
I’ve been trying to see the best, 
                    
But its pushing spring and 
C                  Em       D/F#         
I don’t feel any weight off my chest. 
    G                                  A 
And I, I’ve been trying to sleep this off. 
                      C 
Frustrated with this game, 
                               
Cause the days always change. 
           Em          D/F#       G   A   Em        
But the patterns, they stay the same. Oh, oh, 



D/F#    C 
I    promise that I’ll be 
G  A   Em  D/F#   C 
Everything they wanted me to be. 
    G    A   Em   D/F#   C 
But oh, dear God, it’s tearing me apart. 
       G    A   Em D/F#  C      Cm 
This world that we live in… is done. 



G 
No I won’t let this go. 
                 Em 
I won’t let them take control 
   A       C      G 
Of my life as we know. 

I’m completely aware 
                        Em 
That where I’m from is just one tiny 
  A         C       G 
Glimpse of hell I live. 



G               A                 C                                                 
In my small town, on my back porch, 
                                Em          D/F#    G          
I’ve been thinking about those days I acted like myself. 
                        A      
But those days aren’t gone, 
                         C       
That’s why I sing this song. 
             Em           D/F#          G            
I’ll find myself and I’ll remain headstrong. 



                 A                    C   Em   D/F#   Em 
I won’t let this go. I won’t let this go. 
                 A                    C   Em   D/F#    
I won’t let this go. I won’t let this go. 


G               A                 C                                                 
In my small town, on my back porch, 
                                Em          D/F#    Em          
I’ve been thinking about those days I acted like myself. 
                        A      
But those days aren’t gone, 
                         C       
That’s why I sing this song. 
             Em           D/F#          G
