Am
Am
Trying on a brand new dress
But you haven't worn the old one yet.
F Am
You've come too far, to turn around now.
Giving up the good fight.
You're as strong as anyone.
F
You're back where you started from,
I see you're back where you started from.
Dm,C
(Chorus:)
C Em F
Staring down the stars, jealous of the moon
Dm G
You wish you could fly.
C Em
But you're staying where you are,
F
there's nothing you can do,
Dm G
if you're too scared to try.

Am
Am
Drag your pretty head around
F
Swearing you're gonna drown with a beautiful sigh and a river of lies.
Dm,C
(Chorus)
E
E Am
Why don't you call me, I could save you.
E F Am
Together we'll find a god we can pray to that will take you by the hand.
Am
I hate to see a friend of mine,
F
Laughing out loud when she's crying inside,
but you've got your pride.
Dm,C
(Chorus)
C Em
You're staring down the stars,
C Em
You stay where you are,
C Em F Dm G
You're jealous of the moon, but there's nothing you can do if you're too scared to try,
Dm G
If you're too scared to try.
Am
