🎸 Intro:

C G D Em x2




🎸 Verse 1:
G       D
I been
I been
I been
Em                            C                G
I been touching fires for the sake of feelin'
        D
I been chasing,  chasing
Em                                  C                 G
Chasing all these highs so I could crash the ceiling
       D                    Em                 C         G
I been restless, tempted to follow every devil way down
           D                Em                          C
I took it so low and at the time, it looked like no way out

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
         G
I had to see
       D
Try to believe
           Em                            C
I write my story and this ain't how it's ending
        G               D
Said to myself, said to myself
 Em                       C
"This ain't how I'm gonna go down"


🎸 Chorus:
                       G
When the bottom hit my soul
          D           Em
I had to climb up all alone
         C                  G
When the night shut down my hope
          D              Em
I had to find a light to hold
          C                    Em
You gotta break just a little, die just a little
    D                      C
To come alive in the right way
                     Em              D
And sometimes to get home you gotta go
C
The hard way, hard way


🎸 Verse 2:
G         D        Em
Turnin', turnin', turnin'
                               C                    G
Turnin' every corner 'cause my heart was yearning
    D                     Em
For something more than 4 AM
                              C                   G
Messed up in bed, no
I don't miss that feeling
         D
I don't see a reason
Em                   Em          G
Chasing love down a dead end
D
But see the truth is
            Em                  C
I wouldn't know that unless I did


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
         G
I had to see
       D
Try to believe
            Em                           C
I write my story and this ain't how it's ending
         G               D
Said to myself, said to myself
 Em                       C
"This ain't how I'm gonna go down"


🎸 Chorus:
                        G
When the bottom hit my soul
         D            Em
I had to climb up all alone
         C                 G
When the night shut down my hope
          D               Em
I had to find a light to hold
          C                    Em
You gotta break just a little, die just a little
   D                       C
To come alive in the right way
                     Em             D
And sometimes to get home you gotta go
C
The hard way


🎸 Bridge:
G                         D            Em
I wouldn't know what I'm made of
 Em                     C                        G
If I took the easy way out (I took the easy way out)
                         D             Em
As long as it took me to get here
                                  C
The hard times were worth what I found (I found)
G                        D                   Em
I wouldn't know what I'm made of (I wouldn't know)
                       C                        G
If I took the easy way out (I took the easy way out)
                         D              Em
As long as it took me to get here  (To get here)

The hard times were worth what I found

You gotta break just a little, die just a little
