[Verse 1]
              D
I watched the sun when it rise
  Bm
When it's climbing the sky
       A
I sit here with the pocket full of pain
         D
I've got tears in my juice
Bm
In my mind there's a noose
       A
But my hope makes me cling to the day
        D                Bm
I wanna run with the sun and the moon and the stars
         A
Till I'm runnin' faster than my pain
       D                   Bm
I wish I could breathe out this fear this doubt
        A
Send it into the Milky Way
 
 
[Verse 2]
            D                    Bm
I've got my finger on the trigger of a Magnum 44
        A
But survival instinct won't let me bleed
          D                        Bm
I want to put a bullet straight at my cerebral tissues plate
       A
But my index finger won't let me squeeze
        D                   Bm
I wanna skate down my vein with the blade
                    A
Till the blood runs thicker than the thoughts in my head
    D                 Bm
But don't ask me why this is not my goodbye
       A
It's a suicide failure attempt

[Verse 3]
         D
I choose life, I choose life
 Bm
I choose livin'
                        A
Put the bottles and the pills down
 
I stand up, I breathe with precision
     D               Bm
Calm washes over me like a break in a storm
           A
I close my eyes for a minute
 
Then my troubles transform
 
 
[Verse 4]
              D                    Bm
And I travel deep into the corners of my mind
                     A
I remember the first time I felt hopeless
 
I think I was five
             D                   Bm
Cause at the hands of this bully
                                         A
The lessons that I learned is that this world is not so beautiful
 
Sometimes it can be burnt
       D
By the fires of evil
Bm
That are living inside
           A
The common people, common people
 
Just like you and like I
          D
We'll all strive to survive
Bm
And we all climb to the top
          A
Over our brothers and sisters
 
Whether we mean to or not
 
 
[Verse 5]
           D
And we get lost
               Bm                             A
In the tide of insecurities and power-seeking fooleries
 
But happiness don't live inside no jewelries
D          Bm
 In an age of distraction
                A
We would rather tap on our iPhones
 
Than stop a war from happening
 
 
[Verse 6]
D
 It's heartbreaking
Bm                                  A
Satan's patiently waitin' for us to mess up big time
 
So hell on earth will be blatant
      D                      Bm
So forgive me for wantin' to blow my brains out
      A
But I got a change of heart
 
It's time to change now
 
 
[Verse 7]
      D              Bm
Re-arrange now, fist in the sky
               A
I say proud, I say loud
 
Revolution word on my brain now
    D                     Bm
The people hold the power
 
And power's with the people
    A
The people strife for unity
 
The world, it could be equal
 
 
[Verse 8]
D
You can be the star
Bm
Or the start of the beginnin'
  A
A dawn of no stress, no troubles, no sinnin'
     D
Just livin'
        Bm
So overthrow evil and greed
     A
Put aside the distractions
 
Welcome change with me
 
 
[Verse 9]
        D
Welcome change with me
Bm
Welcome change with me
        A
Welcome change, welcome change
 
Welcome change with me
        D
Welcome change with me
    Bm
Now welcome change with me
             A
Now welcome chan-, welcome chan-
 
Welcome change with me
