[Verse 1]
A
This is looking like i might just wanna stay
Can’t remember much about yesterday
G
Ground is glowing, I’m slowing my stride with every step
(Take a good look at it girl
Take a good look at this world, ah)
A
Electric rivers flow by the silhouette trees
We skinny dip and soak in all of our past dreams
G
And all my new friends dazzle like they’re royals
(Take a good look at it girl
Take a good look at this world, ah)

A
What is this place?
G
The skies are vast and no one’s a familiar face. But I’m not afraid

[Chorus]
A
Kinda feeling brave
G
The winds of change have nothing on this switchblade faith
I’ll take it to my grave
A
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 2]
A
The night is young and it’s wild
I’m running free like a child
G
On the crown of a mountain and I could keep goin’ for miles
I don’t know what’s coming next
I feel a buzz in my legs
But heaven knows that I’m quick on my feet and
D                                                                            A
Good with a blade and some old-fashioned faith in a place like this

Feeling bulletproof and far from faces I don’t miss
So many brand new risks to take

[Chorus]
A
And I’m feeling brave
G
The winds of change have nothing on this switchblade faith
I’ll take it to my grave
A
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Outro]
A
Lining’s silver, grass is greener, and I’m on my way
G
Brightest flicker, ain’t no quitter, I’ll be here to stay
A
Lining’s silver, grass is greener, and I’m not afraid
G
‘Cause I’m running with a switchblade
A
Lining’s silver, grass is greener, and I’m on my way
G
Brightest flicker, ain’t no quitter, I’ll be here to stay
A
Lining’s silver, grass is greener, and I’m not afraid
G
‘Cause I’m running with a switchblade
