Intro:

Ah!


Refrain:
C  E  F D7
Ooh-ooh, ooh (Yeah)
C  E  F
Ooh-ooh, ooh


Verse 1:
   C        E
It's hard to make yourself believe
   F             D7
That it'll get better when you feel defeated
  C       E        F
And carrying on is easier said than done
     C         E
It took a while to see that I was in need
  F         D7
Of help from somebody else but she keeps
 C          E      F
Reminding me that I'm not the only one


Pre-Chorus:
    E                  F
And babe, I would've told you this was gonna happen
            C
If I had known that it would
        F               E      F
But now there's less time and more things that I need to say

And I'm afraid


Chorus:
        C      E         F
That there will always be a part of me that's holding on
  D7         G
And still believes that everything is fine

And that I'm living a normal life
   C      E
But until somebody sits me down
  F         D7
And tells me that I'm different now
   F       G      C
I'll always be the way I always am

Oh, oh


Refrain:

Ooh-ooh, ooh (Yeah)

Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh


Verse 2:
  C       E
My apologies, it's such a shame
F         D7
I never planned to feel this way
    C          E         F
But the more that I try, the more I'm seeing a difference

I'm not gonna lie


Pre-Chorus:
         Dm    G
And now I get to sit down
          C         E
And I'm happy to admit now, I'm on my way
          Dm   G
It seems I'm not invincible
           C
But I'm bored of the pain and I need to explain


Chorus:
         C      E         F
Yeah, there will always be a part of me that's holding on
  D7         G
And still believes that everything is fine

And that I'm living a normal life
   C      E
But until somebody sits me down
  F        D7
And tells me why I'm different now
   F       G      C
I'll always be the way I always am

Yeah, yeah


Outro:
