C
Was a troubled child among many other
G             Am
Children like me
C            G
Just another kid they could beat up
C
Til I cried myself to sleep
F      G           Am
I'm invisible, you see
       Em           C
You do not see me there
Am            F               G
Dream about tomorrow til it's here
C
Nothing shall move the waters
    F
No shiver disturbing me
C                             F
Nothing but calm and peaceful air
Am    G        F
Underneath the sea
C
Take a hold of my rocking horse legs, my love
G              Am               C        Am
And keep them still, like the sundowning sea
C                      G
Bury my thoughts in a pile of gravel
C
Let me sink where I stand til I sleep
F         G           Am
You will not find me here
      Em             C
I am somewhere in between
Am                 F                G
The place where I live and where I dream
Where nothing moves the waters
No shiver disturbing me
Nothing but calm and peaceful air
Underneath the sea
Our world will come to an end some day
When I was young it wasn't far from my head
Two hundred years of peace in this country
But my days filled with battles and dread
I'm a warrior at heart
But a pacifist in deed
And nothing to shield me in my need
Am
A warrior sleeping
       C
In my hands
Am
A warrior yearning
      F
For romance
Am         G
A warrior dreaming
        F
Of the past
F
A warrior lying
F      Dm
To get by
Dm     C   Dm
On my own
Dm     C   Dm
On my own
Dm     F
On my own
Nothing shall move the waters
No shiver disturbing me
Nothing but calm and peaceful air
Underneath the sea
F      C   Dm
On my own
Am
A warrior dreaming
Am    C
On my own

C... F...
