Verse 1:
C majorC
Dear anyone
              A minorAm
Who grew up believing that you were the one
               FF
And now I'm afraid that the doubting has won
          C majorC
Either way, I'm scared of you

The breaking is loud
             A minorAm
I'm terrified of what I'm thinking about
            FF
Maybe you'll hear if I say it out loud
          C majorC
Or maybe the silence is truth

Pre-Chorus:
 DmDm
Oh I just want to know


Chorus 1:
   G+G C majorC
Are you making
       A minorAm
Space for my saving?
     FF
Or am I breaking?
     C majorC
Should I pray it away?
 FF
Pray it away


Verse 2:
C majorC
Dear anyone
              A minorAm
Is it really you throwing punches at us?
               FF
Or throwing us out when we're coming undone?
              C majorC
'Cause I'm so afraid to be wrong

Oh, the voices are loud
               A minorAm
They're saying I'm dirty and going to hell
               FF
I'm starting to think I am screwed up as well
             C majorC
I just wanna know if it's true

Pre-Chorus:

(Oh i just wanna know)
 DmDm
Oh I just wanna know, I just wanna know


Chorus 2:
     C majorC
Are you making
        A minorAm
Space for my saving?
      FF
Or am I breaking?
    C majorC
Should I?
      C majorC
If you made me
        A minorAm
Why do they hate me?
        FF
Never been this free
        C majorC
Why would I pray it away?
 FF
Pray it away


Outro:
A minorAm  FF  C majorC  G+G

A minorAm  FF  C majorC  G+G
 Ooh, ooh, ooh
C majorC
Dear anyone
               A minorAm
I'm not really sure if I'm getting it right
                   FF
But since I've been real, I've been coming alive
                 C majorC
I think that you'd say the same too
