Looking Out Chords

   
Looking Out
By Brandi Carlile
no capo

I heard this song a million times and liked it enough.  But when I saw her perform 
it live and solo, I absolutely fell in love with it.  Enjoy!

G                         Em                               C
I went out looking for the answers, and never left my town

                       G                                     D
I'm no good at understanding, but I'm good at standing ground

G                               Em                                      C
And when I asked a corner preacher, I couldn't hear him for my youth

                  G                                D
Some people get religion, some people get the truth

                   C                        G
I never get the truth, I never get the truth

Chorus
Bm                         C                                   G
I know the darkness pulls on you, but it's just a point of view

                         D                                    Am
When you're outside looking in, you belong to someone

                         C                                A
And when you feel like giving in, or the coming of the end

                           C                             G
Like your heart could break in two, someone loves you

G                            Em                                 C
I laid a suitcase on my chest, so I could feel somebody's weight

                    G                                    D
And I laid you to rest, just to feel the give and take

G                  Em                                    C
I got a new interpretation, and it's a better point of view

                                 G                               D
While you were looking for a landslide, I was looking out for you

                         C                                   G
I was looking out for you, someone's looking out for you

Chorus

G                             Em                     C
I am afraid of crossing lines, I am afraid of flying blind
                        G                                  D
Afraid of inquiring minds, afraid of being left behind

G                              Em                             C
I close my eyes, I think of you; I take a step, I think of you

                                  G                             D
I catch my breath, I think of you; I cannot rest, I think of you

Em                         C                                       G
My one and only wrecking ball, and you're crashing through my walls

                               D                              Am
When you're outside looking in, you belong to someone

                                 C                             A
And when you feel like giving in, or the coming of the end

                                  C                        G
Like your heart could break in two, someone loves you
