Guitar chords with lyrics
Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) Verse 1:E MajorE Growing up in California
C# minorC#m In the land of broken dreams
G# minorG#m
BB Always reaching, always stuck here in between
E MajorE
C# minorC#m Where the sunset shines like diamonds and the future looks so dark
G# minorG#m
BB And the streets are filled with cold and lonely hearts
Hook:E MajorE
C# minorC#m And all the hometown heroes make up stories to send home
G# minorG#m
BB And all the plastic smiles hide what it's like to feel alone
E MajorE And I know I'm not without sin
C# minorC#m Played my part in make-believe
G# minorG#m Coming out from underneath
BB And I want to be washed clean Chorus:
E MajorE I surrender
C# minorC#m To this feeling; to this heart within my chest
G# minorG#m I surrender
BB To the real me I've kept hidden from the rest
E MajorE
C# minorC#m And I've peeled every layer until the truth is all that's left
G# minorG#m I surrender
BB I surrender
E MajorE I surrender
Verse 2:E MajorE Passing all the pretty faces
C# minorC#m On the corner of our streets
G# minorG#m
BB Crowded places where nobody ever leaves
E MajorE Where the air is hot and heavy
C# minorC#m Like the secrets of our youth
G# minorG#m
BB Always play it cool so no one knows the truth Hook:
