I set up the following lyrics so that the chord changes are more intuitive. Learning it
a bit trickier than normal because the second and fourth chords in the progression
the chorus happen on the offbeat.
Play intro during following verse:
(i)
I am unwritten, can't read my mind, I'm undefined...
I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand, ending unplanned...
Bridge:
E D
Staring, at the blank page be-fore you
C#m
Open up the dirty window
C
Let the sun illumi-nate the words that, you could not find
E D
Reaching for something in the distance
C#m
So close you can almost taste it
(--)Don't play here
Release your inhibitions
Chorus:
Feel the rain on your
C#m F#m
Skin, no one else can feel it f-
A E
-or you, only you can let it in
C#m F#m
No one else, no one el-
A E
-se, can speak the words on your
C#m F#m
Lips, drench yourself in words unspo
A E
-ken, live your life with arms wide
C#m F#m (--)
Open, To-day is, where your book begins
(i)
The rest is still unwrit-ten
(i)
I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines...
We've been conditioned, to not make mistakes, but I can't live that way
