[VERSE 1]
I'm a new soul, I came to this strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit about how to give and take
But since I came here, felt the joy and the fear
Finding myself making every possible mistake
( )
La, la, la, la... ) x2
[VERSE 2]
I'm a young soul in this very strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit about what is true and fake
But why all these hate? try to communicate
Finding trust and love is not always easy to make
(G ) x4
[Bridge]
This is a happy end
'Cause you don't understand
Everything you have done
Why's everything so wrong
This is a happy end Come and give me your hand
I'll take you far away
[Modified Verse 1]
G C*
I'm a new soul, I came to this strange world
G* D
Hoping I could learn a bit about how to give and take
But since I came here, felt the joy and the fear
Finding myself making every possible mistake
[Main chord progression continues to end]
Notes:
I've seen quite a few versions of this floating around out there, but none of them
quite right. Feel free to comment on any mistakes you see, but this sounds really close.
G7 chord during the bridge may be off by a trivial note or two, but everything else
good. The whole song sounds best plucked, not strummed. I could have gone into more
with the arpeggiated chords that start at the bridge, but I think this suffices. Great
song, enjoy! dniete97@hotmail.com
