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

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

Pre-Chorus:
  Dm
Oh I just want to know


Chorus 1:
     G C
Are you making
             Am
Space for my saving?
         F
Or am I breaking?
         C
Should I pray it away?
 F
Pray it away


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

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


Pre-Chorus:

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


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


Outro:
Am   F   C   G

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