Intro:

Ah!


Refrain:

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
