[Verse 1]
[Am]Step[C]hen, I love yo[Bm]u,
I can[Am]'t grow past yo[A]u,
I'm, homesick in [Am]spite of the place
that I [C]fostered and [Bm]styled
[E]to raise [Am]this child
[A]who keeps me [Am]in pitch and in pace

[Verse 2]
But I [F]miss [E]reaching for the [Am]lasers,
the [E]sound of the beat is
eight click[Am]s away,
[E]classes, school beha[Am]viour.
[F]sweating the [Dm]night out of the sky,
learning [D]to laugh and
not ask [Dm]why.

[Verse 3]
[C]Stephen, I [G]missed you,
the [Am]whole world kissed you.
[A]You shut up in bloom like a fern
[Am]that was spott[C]ed and black[G],
with [E]the [Am]leaves swirled backwards,
[A]as same trick too easy to turn.
[Am]Should I cha[A]nge

[Verse 4]
[F]my nam[Em]e and
[E]move to the [Am]country?
[E]A life full of children and anim[Am]als,
white [E]fences, landed [Am]gentry.
[F]Maybe I [Dm]want to be myself,
but I [D]am somebody [G]else.[E]

[Verse 5]
[Am]Nine months later, I'm the [F]lonely one,
with all the fruit of labour and [C]half
of the fun.
(just like) crisp and [G]cozy
in the [Am]rising sun,
we've got a [F]heart of gold,
man, it [C]beats like a drum.

[Verse 6]
It [F]shakes,
the [C]pebbles [Em]are cracking and break,
[Am](the kid logic)disso[C]lves
and it all [Em]starts to [Am]give away,
then [C]nothing is [Em]ever the same,
[Am]I can't stand it.
[C]I w[Dm]ant to be myself,
but I [D]am somebody else

[Verse 7]
[C]Stephen, I'm [G]watching
[Am]the world get boring,
[A]there's too much restraint in [Am]the mix.
I'd be [C]overly [G]flattered to
[Am]feel so shattered [A]to,
have something broken and fixed.

[Verse 8]
But i [F]know [Em]the world [E]outside is [Am]knocking
the [E]dream, the drive or the pedi[Am]gree.
The [E]forces interlock[Am]ing,
well, [F]maybe I [Dm]want to be myself,
but [D]I am somebody e[G]lse.[E]

[Verse 9]
[Am]Nine months later, I'm the [F]lonely one,
with all the fruit of labour
and [C]half of the fun.
Just like crisp and [G]cozy in the [Am]rising sun,
he's got a [F]heart of gold,
man, it [C]beats like a drum.

[Verse 10]
It [F]shakes, the [C]pebbles are crack
[Em]ing and break,[Am]
[C](the kid logic) dissolves and
it all [Em]starts to [Am]give away,
and [C]nothing is [Em]ever the same,
[Am]I can't stand it.
[C]I w[Dm]ant to be myself,
but I [D]am somebody else

[Verse 11]
And you'll [F]never have someone like me,
if you'll [F#dim]never leave then
you'll never see.
[F]I swear that I will pull you
from the wreck[C]age
of this [G]sunday, [E]monday [Am]routine.
I will pull you from the wreck[F]age.
oh, don't you need me on my [C]own.

[Verse 12]
Cos you and [Am]me,
we're two [F]of a kind.
We're two [C]of a kind.

[Verse 13]
[C]Stephen, I [E]love you, I can
[Am]'t grow past you,
[F]I got nothing left to give to you.
