[Verse 1]
       Am
As the sun comes up, as the moon goes down
      F
These heavy notions creep around
      Am               F
It makes me think, long ago
      Am
I was brought into this life a little lamb
  F
A little lamb
            Am
Courageous, stumbling
                  F
Fearless was my middle name.
                      Dm
But somewhere there I lost my way
         C
Everyone walks the same
          Dm
Expecting me to step
           C
The narrow path they've laid

They claim to


[Chorus]
Em      G
Walk unafraid
        Em       G
I'll be clumsy instead
        Em          G       D
Hold me love me or leave me high.


[Verse 2]
      Am                        F
Say "keep within the boundaries if you want to play."
      Am                         F
Say "contradiction only makes it harder."
    Am
How can I be
F
What I want To be?
Am                         F
  When all I want to do is strip away

These stilled constraints
    Dm
And crush this charade
           C
Shred this sad masquerade
        Dm
I don't need no persuading
     C
I'll trip, fall, pick myself up and


[Chorus]
Em      G
Walk unafraid
        Em       G
I'll be clumsy instead
        Em         G        D
Hold me love me or leave me high.


[Interlude]
Am – F – Am - F


[Verse 3]
Am
If I have a bag of rocks
   F
to carry as I go
Am                             F
I just want to hold my head up high
Am                               F
I don't care what I have to step over
Am                              F
I'm prepared to look you in the eye

Look me in the eye
    Dm               C
And if you see familiarity
         Dm
Then celebrate the contradiction
C
Help me when I fall to


[Chorus]
Em      G
Walk unafraid
        Em       G
I'll be clumsy instead
        Em         G        D
Hold me love me or leave me high.
       Em      G
I will walk unafraid
        Em       G
I'll be clumsy instead
        Em         G        D
Hold me love me or leave me high.
