Breathing Space

F G Am F G Somewhere in the back of my mind Am Is the girl I left behind C But every now and then she shows her face to me F G Had so many hopes and dreams Am That she buried underneath C Now they’re coming back just yearning to be free F And we could turn this life around G We could burn our bridges down Am Let’s spend the night together you and I C G Em Like nothing matters F There’s an aching in my heart G So I keep searching in the dark Am To find the peace and happiness C I know I deserve F G Can’t replace, breathing space C G Am You can’t hold onto that which can’t be tamed F G Break the chains, unlock the gate C G Am You cannot keep a lion in a cage F G It’s not too late, to create Am Breathing space F G When I’m lost and confused Am I catch you in my rearview C Feel you sneaking in behind me F G You turn my head and now I see Am Catch a glimpse of the real me C My body shivers at the thought of you F And we could turn this life around G We could burn our bridges down Am Let’s spend the night together you and I C G Em Like nothing matters F There’s an aching in my heart G So I keep searching in the dark Am To find the peace and happiness C I know I deserve F G Can’t replace, breathing space C G Am You can’t hold onto that which can’t be tamed F G Break the chains, unlock the gate C G Am You cannot keep a lion in a cage F G It’s not too late, to create Am Breathing space F G Am F And we could turn this life around G We could burn our bridges down Am Let’s spend the night together you and I C G Em Like nothing matters F There’s an aching in my heart G So I keep searching in the dark Am To find the peace and happiness C I know I deserve F G Can’t replace, breathing space C G Am You can’t hold onto that which can’t be tamed F G Break the chains, unlock the gate C G Am You cannot keep a lion in a cage F G It’s not too late, to create Am Breathing space F You gotta let her go G Her light cannot be dimmed Am She’s like the wind F You’ve gotta set her free G Am Oh she is me, oh she is me
