C
We all make our plans      We all have our choices
G
Try on different faces     Talk in other voices
C
I said a lot of things     That never let me sleep
G
Made promises I really meant to keep

      C         G         Dm                  C       G       Dm
I'm not ashamed of the things I've done     I took the blame when I could have run
      C         G         Dm               C         G        Dm
I'm not ashamed of the things I've done     I know I stayed when I could have gone
Bb              C       G
I don't expect it to be easy for me

We're tied together by a simple little pledge
Before we know the trust it takes to walk up to that edge
We build a house cards           Where the wind has always blown
We build our little garden On a bed of sand and stones

A                   Dm
It took too long for me to be who I am
Bb                    G
Maybe that's enough for me to be it when I can

I'm not ashamed of the things I've done     I took the blame when I could have run
I'm not ashamed of the things I've done     I know I stayed when I could have gone

Our little houses where the wind has always blown
Our little garden on a bed of sand and stones

We drift along in quiet waters on the tide  We rise and fall in rhythm almost satisfied
We let ourselves be drawn, let ourselves be used
I only ever wanted to be taken in by you

It took too long for me to be who I am
Maybe that's enough for me to be it when I can
