[Intro]
D G A Bm G
[Verse]
D D G
Homesick for a home I don’t have
What a shame I didn’t fit in
A Bm7
'Cause I don’t look like them
Bm
I was trying and trying
G
to crawl out of my skin
D
I was livin gwith my parents
Sleeping in that car
G
Trying to plant roots
A
in a concrete floor
Bm
Waking up in cities
G
I’ve never heard of before
And I’ve been thinkin'
[Chorus]
D
Old me
G A
Left my heart in Missouri
Bm
Never felt this alive and
G
For the first time in my life
I need a minute to breathe in
D
Slowly
G A
Left the pine for the palm trees
Bm
Never felt this alive and
G
For the first time in my life
N.C.
I’ve been dying to sit still
[Verse]
D
Snuck out for the homecoming crown
G
Didn’t give a damn if I win
A Bm
Knew I’d never see them again
G
Looking back I wouldn’t do it any different
D
Built too many glass ceilings
I’m responsible for
G A
Died upon that hill of letting no one close
Bm
Changing all the ways I’ve behaved before
G
Running through the fields
N.C.
And I’ve been thinking
[Chorus]
D
Old me
G A
Left my heart in Missouri
Bm
Never felt this alive and
G
For the first time in my life
I need a minute to breathe in
D
Slowly
G A
Left the pine for the palm trees
Bm
Never felt this alive and
G
For the first time in my life
N.C.
I’ve been dying to sit still
[Break]
G A Bm
Took another trip
Bm A D
Around the Sun
A G A Bm7 a
And watch traffic go by
[Chorus]
D
Old me
G A
Left my heart in Missouri
Bm
Never felt this alive and
G
For the first time in my life
N.C.
I need a minute to breathe in
D
Slowly
G A
Left the pine for the palm trees
Bm
Never felt this alive and
G
For the first time in my life
I’ve been dying to sit still
[Outro]
D D G A
Bm Bm G
N.C.
I'm dying to sit still
