**** [intro]
N/C - single note 'E' crescendo to rhythm intro (acoustic guitar) E . . . |E . . . | G#m/B . . . |G#m/B . . . |
[verse] This town is colder now, I think it's sick of us E
It's time to make our move, I'm shakin' off the rust G#m/B
I've got my heart set on anywhere but here E
I'm starin' down myself, countin' up the years G#m/B
Steady hands, just take the wheel. C#m
And ev'ry glance is killin' me. A
Time to make one last appeal for the life I lead C#m A
[chorus] Stop and stare. I think I'm movin' but I E
go nowhere. Yeah, I know that ev'ryone gets scared B C#m
But I've become what I can't be. Oh, A
Stop and stare. You start to wonder why you're E
here not there. B
And you'd give anything to get what's fair C#m
But fair ain't what you really need A
Oh, can you see what I see? E
[verse] They're try'n' to come back, all my senses push E
Untie the weight bags, I never thought I could, G#m/B
Steady feet, don't fail me now C#m
I Will run 'til you can't walk A
Somethin' pulls my focus out C#m A
And I'm standin' down.
[chorus] Stop and stare. I think I'm movin' but I E
go nowhere. Yeah, I know that ev'ryone gets scared B C#m
