Intro:
Gm C F Dm
Gm C F

Verse 1:
                   Gm                  C
I've been treading water ever since my feelings changed
F                           Dm
I fell out of order, didn't feel the same
               Gm                  C
Looking in the mirror, didn't recognize my face
F                                Dm
The painted on facanes, slipping out of place

Pre-Chorus:
          Gm                    C
I've been trying, trying, trying
      F             Dm
To go back to who I was
          Gm                  C
But I'd be lying, lying, lying
    F                 Dm
To myself but at what cost


Chorus:
     Gm                C
I surrender all control
         F               Dm
And everything I think I know
          Gm                    C
I've been high and I've been low
          F
Swallowed up by a black
Gm    C    F   Dm
Ho-o-o-o-o-o-ole
Gm    C    F   Dm
Ho-o-o-o-o-o-ole


Post-Chorus:
        Gm             C               F
I'm not giving up, I'm finally letting go


Verse 2:
                   Gm                C
I've been turning metal, heavy metal into gold
F                            Dm
Baptized by the fire, just so I can grow
                Gm                        C
Pushing out the concrete, pushing like a stubborn rose
F                             Dm
Now that I'm in bloom, all my colors show


Pre-Chorus:
          Gm                    C
I've been trying, trying, trying
      F             Dm
To go back to who I was
          Gm                    C
But I'd be lying, lying, lying
      F               Dm
To myself but at what cost


Chorus:
     Gm                C
I surrender all control
         F               Dm
And everything I think I know
          Gm                    C
I've been high and I've been low
          F
Swallowed up by a black
Gm    C    F   Dm
Ho-o-o-o-o-o-ole    (let go)
Gm    C    F   Dm
Ho-o-o-o-o-o-ole


Post-Chorus:
         Gm             C              F
I'm not giving up, I'm finally letting go

Now I've got the freedom, no need to be sad
Gm        C         F      Dm
Everything I wanted, I already had
Gm                C               F       Dm
I just didn't know-oh there was an art to letting go

I just didn't know-oh (I just didn't know-oh), there was an art to letting go
