intro: D Bm D Bm

D
I learned to dance

From a girl who could dance
                             Bm       D
Far better than I could even breathe

I learned to fight

From an old man who could fight

Chase the dogs from the night

With never having to swing


G                     D         G
All that I wanted was all in my mind
               A          D
And all that I need is to sing


G D Bm


D
I learned to crash

From a friend who could crash
                                          Bm    D
Stop the world in it's tracks beneath his feet

And I learned to be kind by

Trying hard to find it when
                        Bm
Fear I think comes most easily


G                     D         G
All that I wanted was all in my mind
               A          D
And all that I need is to sing


G D Bm

D
I learned from a past

When the flags were all half mast
                                      Bm     D
For the days when all our dreams were king

I would learn to fade

Like the sinking sun then they
                D               Bm
May help me and give me days to waste


G                     D         G
All that I wanted was all in my mind
               A          D
And all that I need is to sing


G D Bm D Bm

D
I learned to die

From a good woman who died
                               Bm
With her head held high in the wind
D
When my time arrives

And the lights gonna leave my eyes

It's the love that I find
                      Bm
That's gonna ease the sting


G                     D         G
All that I wanted was all in my mind
A              F
And all that I need...

D                           Bm
Ooooooh, ooooh, ooh ooh ooh oooooooh x3
