Verse 1:

G               Bm       D
    Every time I try to find you
G                     Bm     D
    Every road comes back around
G               Bm        D
    Just another hoop to jump through
G                    Bm         D
    Another mile of covered ground

G

G             Bm         D
    I am weary of the answers
G                    Bm    D
    More theory and cliche
G                                Bm          D
    They raise the letter of the law like a banner
G                         Bm     D
    Till you’re small and far away


Pre-Chorus:

Em               A

Em         A               F
    Are from my heart instead

    Every scribe and every scholar
G                    Bm     D
    No winners in this debate

G                      Bm        D
    Everybody seems to stand up taller
G                      Bm     D
    When you’re easy to explain


Pre-Chorus:

Em              A
    I don’t need to know what I don’t know

    Just gotta let it go

    More than anything

Em      A
    So lay down the sword
Em        A
    And put away the doctrine
Em                     C
    Love a little more, love a little more

‘Cus everybody’s broken
