[Verse]
                                     C
I’ve starved my days I’ve drowned my nights
                               G
I’ve run campaigns against the light
                              Dm
I’ve been the liar, I let the fire die down
                       Am
I shrunk back from the fight
                                C
But I’ve got this feeling, this suspicion, this conviction 
            G
something’s shifting and I’m lifting up
   Dm
my feet to take the step 

[Chours]
          Am      C
I’m ready now 
   G                                 Dm
To let myself change colors with the leaves
                           Am    C
let the wind come shake me down
G                              Dm
Deliver me closer to the ground
                        Am     C G Dm
I made a promise to the moon 

[Instrumental]
Am C G Dm

[Verse]
Am                        C
Outside this window I see all the other boxes
           G
box-shaped jobs and box-shaped cars 
      Dm                                     Am
those little box-sized lives that I could live
                         C
I know the shape of this room
                                G
I know these walls, I know this tomb
                             Dm
I know I’m stalling, but I’m going to turn the page

[Chorus]
           Am   C
So show me how
      G                         Dm
I can weave my way into a tight cocoon 
                           Am   C
then let it push me inside out
         G                            Dm
I made a vow I made a pledge I made a pact
                        Am    C G Dm
I made a promise to the moon

[Verse]
Am                                   C
I’ve starved my days I’ve drowned my nights
                          G
Run campaigns against the light
                              Dm
I’ve been the liar, I let the fire die down
                       Am
I shrunk back from the fight
                            C
I’ve got this feeling, this suspicion, this conviction
            G

[Chorus]
          Am   C
I’m ready now
   G                                 Dm

let the wind come shake me down
G                        Dm
deliver me closer to the ground
                         Am   C
I made a promise show me how 
   G                         Dm
to weave my way to a tight cocoon 
                          Am    C
and let it push me inside out 
         G                                  Dm
I made a vow I made this pledge I made this pact
                        Am     C  G  Dm
I made a promise to the moon
