Verse: Amaj7 Bm7 Bm7 Amaj7 Chorus: F7 Amaj7 F7 Amaj7 F7 Amaj7 F7 G7 Bridge: Amaj7 Bm7 C#m D (change to Dm7 end of second time) i'll wage war if there's a war worth fighting for if there's a war worth fighting for, i'll be the victor i'll call it quits if my efforts are fruitless if my efforts are fruitless, i will surrender somewhere in between reality and a dream somewhere in between wrong and right i'm meddling in the middle of these things i've found i find myself between fight and flight i'll settle down if it will plant me in the ground if it will plant the ground, i'll have roots to cherish i'll float away if it will spread me into space if it will spread me into space i will not perish
