INTRO: G D C G

If I don't see you before I go
G D C
Remember what you've seen and what you know
D G C
Sunshine, you will be, on my mind eternally
G D C G
But you remember you, and I'll remember me
CHORUS:
C Dsus2 C
I want to be on my own

It's a long way home

I feel like a baby boy
C G
Just being born

If you find your true love once again
G D C
Please don't do the same damn thing to him
D G C
Even when I's with you, I felt so all alone
G D C G
So I'd as soon do without you and be on my own
CHORUS:
C Dsus2 C
I want to be on my own
D C
It's a long way home
G D
I feel like a baby boy
C G
Just being born
D C
A captive of your heart, I guess I was
G D C
You gave no reason to stop loving me, just because
D G C
Well, you dragged yourself right down, you could not hear a sound
G D C G
Just the tapping of your teardrops on the ground
CHORUS:
C Dsus2 C
I want to be on my own
D C
It's a long way home
G D
I feel like a baby boy
C
Just being born
BRIDGE:

Get outside your shell
G C
Those things don't make you well
G D C G
You're the broken part of a living fairy tale
CHORUS:
C Dsus2 C
I want to be on my own

It's a long way home

I feel like a baby boy

Just being born
