G/B  C  D
G/B  C  Em  D

[Verse 1]
G/B             C             D
I've learned to slam on the brake
G/B     C      Em       D
Before I even turn the key
G/B     C             D
Before I make the mistake
G/B       C             Em       D
Before I lead with the worst of me

[Verse 2]
G/B        C             D
Give them no reason to stare
G/B         C      Em        D
No slipping up if you slip away
G/B    C              D
So I got nothing to share
G/B      C            Em D
No, I got nothing to say

[Pre-Chorus]
Am              Em         D
Step out, step out of the sun
        G/B           C
If you keep getting burned
Am              Em         D
Step out, step out of the sun
   G/B          C          D
Because you've learned, because you've learned

[Chorus]
Em            C
On the outside, always looking in
      G               D
Will I ever be more than I've always been?
            Em                    C
'Cause I'm tap, tap, tapping on the glass
     G                D
I'm waving through a window
Em                   C
I try to speak, but nobody can hear
     G                   D
So I wait around for an answer to appear
           Em                        C
While I'm watch, watch, watching people pass
     G                D       B/D# Em
I'm waving through a window, oh
     C                       D      G/B   C   D G/B C Em D
Can anybody see, is anybody waving back at me?

[Verse 3]
G/B           C              D
We start with stars in our eyes
G/B         C              Em  D
We start believing that we belong
G/B    C                D
But every sun doesn't rise
G/B       C                Em         D
And no one tells you where you went wrong

[Pre-Chorus]
Am             Em         D
Step out, step out of the sun
        G/B          C
If you keep getting burned
Am             Em          D
Step out, step out of the sun
   G/B          C          D                Em
Because you've learned, because you've learned

[Chorus]
                C
On the outside, always looking in
       G             D
Will I ever be more than I've always been?
            Em                    C
'Cause I'm tap, tap, tapping on the glass
G                   D
Waving through a window
Em                  C
I try to speak, but nobody can hear
    G                    D
So I wait around for an answer to appear
           Em                          C
While I'm watch, watch, watching people pass
G                  D        Em
Waving through a window, oh
    C        G               D
Can anybody see, is anybody waving?

[Bridge]
              G/B         C                 D        Em
When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around
        G/B          C         D           Em
Do you ever really crash, or even make a sound?
              G/B           C               D        Em
When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around
        G/B          C         D           Em
Do you ever really crash, or even make a sound?
              G/B         C                 D        Em
When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around
        G/B          C         D           Em
Do you ever really crash, or even make a sound?
              G/B         C                 D        Em
When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around
        G/B          C         D           Em
Do you ever really crash, or even make a sound?
      G/B         C
Did I even make a sound?
      D           Em
Did I even make a sound?
             G/B           C
It's like I never made a sound
        D
Will I ever make a sound?

(shift to Capo 3rd Fret)

[Chorus]
Em              C
On the outside, always looking in
      G             D
Will I ever be more than I've always been?
            Em                    C
'Cause I'm tap, tap, tapping on the glass
G                   D
Waving through a window
Em                   C
I try to speak, but nobody can hear
     G                  D
So I wait around for an answer to appear
          Em                         C
While I'm watch, watch, watching people pass
G                   D     Em
Waving through a window, oh
    C        G              D       G/B     C     D
Can anybody see, is anybody waving back at me? (Ooh)

[Outro]
G/B C     Em  D
Is anybody waving?
G/B   C  D      G/B    C Em D       G/B
Waving, waving, whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh
