Walk unafraid

(Intro:) Em 
 
       Am 
As the sun comes up, as the moon goes down 
       F 
these heavy notions creep around 
    Am 
it makes me think 
      F         Am 
long ago I was brought into 
Am 
this life a little lamb 
   F 
a little lamb 
             Am 
courageous, stumbling 
                 F 
fearless was my middle name 
                        D 
but somewhere there I lost my name 
           C 
everyone walks the same 
          D 
expecting me to step 
            C 
the narrow path they've laid 
C 
they claim to 
 Em       G 
walk unafraid 
         Em        G 
I'll be clumsy instead 
         Em          G       D 
hold my love me or leave me high 
 
(same chords again) 
 
Say "keep within the boundaries if you want to play" 
Say "contradiction only makes it harder" 
how can I be 
what I want to be? 
when all I want to do is strip away 
these stilled constraints 
and crush this charade 
shred this sad masquerade 
I don't need no persuading 
I'll trip, fall, pick myself up and 
walk unafraid 
I'll be clumsy instead 
hold my love me or leave me high 
 
If I have a bag of rocks to carry as I go 
I just want to hold my head up high 
I don't care what I have to step over 
I'm prepared to look you in the eye 
look me in the eye 
and if you see familiarity 
then celebrate the contradiction 
help me when I fall to 
walk unafraid 
I'll be clumsy instead 
hold my love me or leave me high 
walk unafraid 
I'll be clumsy instead 
hold my love me or leave me high
