And I'm afraid (ahhhh)

I'm so afraid (ahhhh)
          Bb    C
What if I lose?

Is what I think to myself

I'm fine in my shell

I'm afraid of it all, afraid of loving you

The birds fly high and they wink at all of the grandmothers on the ground
 F                     Bb                                    A
Rain pours down in the village dens, my cousins fetch for lunch

While I sit in my room writing letters to my church and things and such

And I'm afraid (ahhhh)

What if I lose?
         F            Am
Is what I think to myself

I'm fine in my shell
    A
I'm afraid of it all, afraid of loving you
 
[Refrain]
F            Bb
Cousins all in the creek
                      A
Ridin' high, ride with me
F                        Bb                  A
And the rain pours down, the ghetto dancin', yeah
