[Verse One]
C         D7        G
I don't write cause I don't think
C         D7     G
I don't have a need to speak
C       D7       G                     C
I don't see the bright side, quite as clear
    D7          G
Accolades and happy days
C          D7       G
They don't ever last
C   D7        G    C                    D7
Stories of courage clouded up with fear


[Chorus]
G
In the broom grass, I would lie
C                      D7
Glimmer in my eye, the sun smiled back on me
G                C
From victory, I tried
G                           C
To match eternal light with how I lead my life
   D7                      G       C
Of course, I was forced to retreat
              D7
From victory I accept defeat

[Verse Two]
C     D7          G
Waxy green and yellow walls
C   D7       G
Outside my windows fall
C   D7         G                   C
Covering the light I thought I'd see
      D7         G
Am I sad or am I sick?
C      D7            G
What's at the root of it?
C      D7     G
Do I throw my hands and quit?
C                   D7
Something tells me no


[Chorus]
G
In the broom grass, I would lie
C                      D7
Glimmer in my eye, the sun smiled back on me
G                C
From victory, I tried
G                           C
To match eternal light with how I lead my life
   D7                      G       C
Of course, I was forced to retreat
              D7
From victory I accept defeat

[Bridge]
Am                          G
Worries on all sides of my mind
   Am                         C     D7
In silence, my darkness is denied


[Chorus]
G
In the broom grass, I would lie
C                      D7
Glimmer in my eye, the sun smiled back on me
G                C
From victory, I tried
G                           C
To match eternal light with how I lead my life
   D7                      G       C
Of course, I was forced to retreat
              D7            G
From victory I accept defeat
     C        D7
From victory I accept defeat
