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:
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
Whoa...
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
