Finding Neverland - When Your Feet Dont Touch The Ground

Words and Music by ELIOT KENNEDY and GARY BARLOW


[Intro]

Bb     Dm


[Verse 1]

(Barrie)
Bb                      Dm
When did life become so complicated?
Gm                            Dm
Years of too much thought and time I wasted
Eb                         Bb/F
  And in each line upon my face
   Cm7                 Eb           F4   F
is proof I fought and lived another day.


[Verse 2]

(Barrie:)
Bb                         Dm
When did life become this place of madness?
Gm                           Dm
Drifting on an empty sea of waves and sadness?
Eb                       Bb/F
  I make believe I'm in control, 
    Cm7               Eb     F4   
And dream it wasn't all my fault.


[Chorus]

(Barrie:)
F         Bb                       Bb/A
When your feet don't touch the ground, 
          Gm                     Dm
And your world's turned upside down, 
           Ebadd9         Bbadd9/D
Here, it's safe, in this place, 
            F   F4
Above the clouds.

 F         Bb                   Bb/A
When your feet don't touch the earth, 
           Gm                   Dm
You can't feel the things that hurt
            Ebadd9          Bbadd9/D
And you're free, there's no need
        F   F4  F
To come down.


[Verse 3]

(Peter:)
Bb                      Dm
Ev'ryday just feels a little longer
Gm                            Dm
Why am I the only one not getting stronger?
Eb                                Bb/F
Running 'round pretending life's a play, 
  Cm7                 Eb           F4   F
It doesn't make the darkness go away.


[Verse 4]

(Peter:)
Bb                        Dm
I may be young but I can still remember
Gm                            Dm
Feeling full of joy, crying tears of laughter
Eb                            Bb/F
  Now all my tears are all cried out, 
  Cm7               Eb     F4   
Make believe, but count me out.


[Chorus]

(Peter:)
F          G                G/F#
'Cause my feet are on the ground, 
         Em             Bm
And the inner voice I found
             C               G/B
Tells the truth, there's no use, 
                       D   D4  D
If your head's in the clouds

F          G                G/F#
With my feet on solid earth, 
         Em                 Bm
I can face the things that hurt, 
       C               G/B
And in time, I'll be fine, 
           D   D4  D
I'll come 'round.


[Bridge]

(Barrie:)
Em              Bm/D
I was once like you.
C          G/B
Life was a maze.
Am          Cmaj7   Bm
I couldn't find my way out.
     F#m          C#m/E
But what I say is true, 
 D          A/C#
You'll be amazed, 
 Bm7                        D/E            E
Make believe and you will find out that it's true.
                                    (Peter:) I know what is true
