Standing up

1 Verse:
G                                            F
I can't change what you think
                                                       Eb
I can't make you change your mind
                                      Cm
I just know that I'm done 
                                       G
with the me I hid behind
                                         F
No more rolling in the dirt
                                              Eb
Now I'm shaking off the dust
                                           Cm
'Cause I might just be enough

Chorus:
                 G    F/A  G/H  Cm
This is me standing up
                   F              G
This is me moving on
                 G    F/A  G/H  Cm
This is me breaking out 
                F                 G
of the cages I've known
              G    F/A  G/H  Cm
My knees may be shaky
            F                G
I've lost myself lately
               G    F/A  G/H  Cm
But I know I'm not done
                   F       G
This is me standing up

2 Verse:
G                                                  F
Not sure where I clipped my wings
                                                    Eb
But I'm no good when I can't fly
                                                    Cm
I'm a bird that knows there's blue 
                                                   G
behind the gray September sky
                                                F
I could stay here on the ground
                                          Eb
Never see beyond the now
                                           Cm
Never blink or make a sound

Chorus:
                     G    F/A  G/H  Cm
But this is me standing up
                   F              G
This is me moving on
                 G    F/A  G/H  Cm
This is me breaking out 
                F                 G
of the cages I've known
              G    F/A  G/H  Cm
My knees may be shaky
            F                G
I've lost myself lately
               G    F/A  G/H  Cm
But I know I'm not done
                 F                  G
This is me standing up

Bridge:
G                                            F
Oh, in the face of all my fears
                                                        Eb
Fighting my way through these tears

This is me
                   Cm
Standing up, standing up
G                                     F
In the face of raging doubt

Hear me scream  hear me shout

This is me
                  Cm
Standing up
                                   G
Standing up, standing up
                                       F
In the face of all my fears
                                                       Eb
Fighting my way through these tears
This is me
                     Cm
Standing up
                                        G
Standing up, standing up
                                         F
In the face of raging doubt
                                                Eb
Hear me scream  hear me shout
