[Verse 1]
Eb Bb Fm
Always thought I needed a guardian
Cm Eb
And now that I've got one I wanna be free
Bb Fm Cm
I don't wanna live my life unhappily
Eb Bb Fm
I'm locked up in chains, laid out on the floor
Cm
I've been down this road before
Eb Bb Fm
I'm not gonna cry, I'm not gonna bleed
Cm Bb
No matter how hard it might be
[Chorus]
Fm Eb Bb
I wanna be free from the dark that lives deep inside of me
Fm Eb Bb
Free from all the eyes I see watching over me
Ab Eb
Don't want you to be there
Cm Bb
Don't want you to care for me anymore
Fm Eb Db
I wanna be free of the guardian
Ab Bb
I am the guardian
[Verse 2]
Eb Bb Fm
The small town girl that I'm looking for
Cm
There's something I'd like more
Eb Bb Fm
To feel like a child somewhere within
Cm
Nothing left beneath this skin
Eb Bb Fm
Too tired to live, too tired to die
Cm
So I just stay high
Eb Bb Fm
I just wanna leave, it's swallowing me
Cm Bb
Should I just keep trying?
[Chorus]
Fm Eb Bb
I wanna be free from the dark that lives deep inside of me
Fm Eb Bb
Free from all the eyes I see watching over me
Ab Eb
Don't want you to be there
Cm Bb
Don't want you to care for me anymore

I wanna be free of the guardian
Ab Bb
I am the guardian
