[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
Dm
I grew up memorizing all the cracks in the wall
Staring up at the ceiling watching particles fall
Am
See I prayed every day for a change to be made
G
And I'd wait to be saved, oh no
Dm
Up at night, hiding under covers found my escape
Shut my eyes and let the bass buzz into my brain
Am G
See I knew I was destined for bigger and better but never said a thing
[Pre-Chorus]
F Dm
I assumed there was only room for
Am G Am
My dreams in my dreams so I'd sleep and repeat 'til the moon went home
Dm
And I didn't know where it'd take me but made me so crazy in love with it
[Chorus]
Am
Then the universe aligned
Am
With what I had in mind
F
Who knew there was a life
Dm C Am
Behind those four pink walls?
[Verse 2]
Dm
Now I wake up to a different bedroom everyday
Living up in the clouds thinking of how it all changed
Am
Used to sit and watch paint dry
Amazed by the limelight
G
I can't ever be afraid
[Pre-Chorus]
F Dm
I assumed there was only room for
Am G Am
My dreams in my dreams so I'd sleep and repeat 'til the moon went home
Dm
And I didn't know where it'd take me but made me so crazy in love with it
[Chorus]
Am
Then the universe aligned
Am
With what I had in mind
F
Who knew there was a life
Dm C Am
Behind those four pink walls?
Am
Oh, the universe aligned
Am
With what I wanted all this time
F
I knew there was a life
Dm C Am
Behind those four pink walls
[Bridge]
Am
All of the days that I wasted gazing outside the window
Impatient frustrations let out into my pillow
Lied awake at night while my head wandered
And I wondered why
Things weren't different
Everything shifted overnight
Went from "when boredom strikes" to "Ms. Star on the Rise"
It was all in an instant man
But those four pink walls, now I kinda miss them man
[Chorus]
Am
Oh, the universe aligned
Am
With what I wanted all this time
F
I knew there was a life
Dm C Am
Behind those four pink walls
