Intro:
Ahh!


Refrain:
C#C#    FF    F#F#   D#D#
  Ooh-ooh, ooh  (Yeah)
C#C#          FF       F#F#
  Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

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


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

And I’m afraid


Chorus:
                C#C#          FF                 F#F#
That there will always be a part of me that’s holding on
    D#D#                  G#G#
And still believes that everything is fine
             G#G#
And that I’m living a normal life
    C#C#             FF
But until somebody sits me down
    F#F#                D#D#
And tells me that I’m different now
     G#G#                         C#C#
I’ll always be the way I always am

Oh, oh

Refrain:
C#C#    FF    F#F#   D#D#
  Ooh-ooh, ooh  (Yeah)
C#C#          FF       F#F#
  Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh


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

I’m not gonna lie


Bridge:
                 D#mD#m
And now I get to sit down
G#G#                 C#C#                   D#mD#m
  And I’m happy to admit now, I’m on my way
                 D#mD#m
It seems I’m not invincible
G#G#        C#C#
  But I’m bored of the pain and I need to explain


Chorus:
                C#C#          FF                 F#F#
Yeah, there will always be a part of me that’s holding on
    D#D#                  G#G#
And still believes that everything is fine
             G#G#
And that I’m living a normal life
    C#C#             FF
But until somebody sits me down
    F#F#                D#D#
And tells me why I’m different now
     G#G#                         C#C#
I’ll always be the way I always am

yeah, yeah, ah-hah
