Verse 1:
              Am
I know how to speak
                     C  G
And I know where I'm going
            Am
I wanted to seek
              C  G
But I got distracted

Bridge 1:
           D
It's a mirage
                       C
One that leaves me embarrassed
                              G
Because no one knows me like you
                               D
You know thereâs nothing left for you
                 Am
So I continually move
                            C
Try to pass it through for ya
         D
Cause I bore ya

Verse 2:
                Am
The past about pain
                C   G
Is timeless and honest
                   Am
So let go of your shame
                     C   G
It's a dead dampened blanket

Bridge 2:
          D
It's a facade
                        C
Back and look at your training
                           G
There's nobody else like you
                      D
I think I finally explained it
                 Am
So I continue to move
                           C
Between the bank and the blanket
       D
Don't fake it

?horus:
C                       G
I, I'm really gonna try this time
           C                               G
I'm gonna give you my heart in spite of my soul
C                       G
I, I'm really gonna try this time
           C                               G
I'm gonna give you my heart in spite of my soul

Verse 3:
            Am
I want your name
            C  G
Burnt in my ceiling
              Am
Floats like a flame
               C  G
An unpredictable wonder

Bridge 3:
                D
You gave it all hope
                       C
That all of this is a circle
                         G
There's nobody else like you
                     D
So many that came before ya
                     Am
This is the moment I choose
                          C
Between the hope and the hardest
       D
To be honest

Chorus:
C                       G
I, I'm really gonna try this time
       C                                G
Gonna give you my heart in spite of my soul
C                       G
I, I'm really gonna try this time
      C                                 G
Gonna give you my heart in spite of my soul
