Chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)

NOTE: The Dadd11 throughout the song is technically a Dadd9add11. It should be played like a C/GC/G shape two
frets up. If you wish, you can also play every Dadd11 as a regular D MajorD chord to make the song easier as well.

Verse 1:
G+G
 Here I am, confessing again
 C majorC
I know I've let You down
G+G
 I've said it a thousand times
 C majorC
Never again starts now
G+G
 I've slept through so many days
   C majorC
I've wasted so much time
G+G
 Can't solve it with a song
   C majorC
Can't fix it with a rhyme

Chorus:
    Dadd11
So I'll try
   E minorEm      C majorC
To be honest with myself
 Dadd11
Again
     E minorEm       C majorC         Dadd11
But I can feel just so uncomfortable in my skin
    E minorEm        C majorC
No, You told me that You love me
         Dadd11
But I don't remember when
  E minorEm  C majorC
Oh-oh-oh-oh


Verse 2:
G+G                  C majorC
 Feel like I was so much wiser when I was 17
G+G
 Saw the world in just two shades
    C majorC
 Didn't stand in the in-between
G+G                C majorC
 If the man I was back then saw who I am right now
G+G                 C majorC
 Wonder if he'd be disappointed in how he would turn out

Chorus:
    Dadd11
So I'll try
   E minorEm      C majorC
To be honest with myself
 Dadd11
Again
     E minorEm       C majorC       Dadd11
But I can feel just so uncomfortable in my skin
    E minorEm        C majorC
No, You told me that You love me
         Dadd11
But I don't remember when
  E minorEm  C majorC   Dadd11
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
  E minorEm  C majorC
Oh-oh-oh-oh


Bridge:

But I hear You say
 Dadd11   E minorEm       C majorC     Dadd11
"Child, stop listening to yourself so much
    E minorEm         C majorC      Dadd11
I have made you more than worthy of My love
    E minorEm            C majorC
You are fearfully and wonderfully made
      Dadd11
And that's enough"
  E minorEm  C majorC
Whoa-oa-oa-oa
    Dadd11
"Whoa, child
       E minorEm        C majorC     Dadd11
If you could see yourself the way that I do
      E minorEm         C majorC         Dadd11
You'd see I made you in My image and My work's not through
      E minorEm        C majorC
Oh, we'll dance on his disappointment
       Dadd11
In a world made new"
 E minorEm   C majorC
Whoa-oa-oa

Outro:
  Dadd11         E minorEm
Oh, I know your heart is tired
          C majorC
The floods and the fire
          G+G      Dadd11
Have made this seem all too far gone
  Dadd11        E minorEm
Oh, I know your heart is broken
             C majorC
But the last words I've spoken
      G+G      D MajorD
The best is still yet to come

Have made this seem all too far gone
  Dadd11        E minorEm
Oh, I know your heart is broken
             C majorC
But the last words I've spoken
      G+G      D MajorD
The best is still yet to come

Dadd11 E minorEm C majorC G+G
