🎸 Verse:

Dm      Bb             Dm
I dug myself out of my grave
         Bb              Dm
A box of pine and dirt remain
          Bb       C
And every insecurity I've left there with it
Dm           Bb             Dm
I laughed at every word you said
              Bb               Dm
With sparking eyes, a handsome head
         Bb              C
And confidence we'll perfect
    Dm         Bb
The things you see are nothing like me

🎸 Chorus:

Bb            C              Dm         F                    Bb
I'll leave it all behind and justify it just between you and me
         C       Dm               F
I buried all the misery, but it's clawing back now
Bb                 C                       Dm
It's every way you move and everything you do
                     F                      Bb
You'll never make me forget the things I've seen
          C                  Dm
I know my secret's safe with me


🎸 Verse 2:

Dm         Bb                   Dm
I took the stairs, I climbed so high
         Bb              Dm
On every floor, I told a lie
           Bb              C
And at the top, I tried to fly

But stayed here with you
Dm             Bb
The door keeps opening
   Dm               Bb                Dm
It brings a gust of cold and crawling skin
            Bb             C      Dm    Bb
I'm comfortable but I just sinned silently

And that's just like me


🎸 Chorus 2:

Bb            C              Dm         F                    Bb
I'll leave it all behind and justify it just between you and me
         C       Dm               F
I buried all the misery, but it's clawing back now
Bb                 C                       Dm
It's every way you move and everything you do
                     F                      Bb
You'll never make me forget the things I've seen
          C                  Dm
I know my secret's safe with me


🎸 Bridge:

F        C/E
Fail me, spill me
Dm
Leave this mess behind
Bb                 F/A    C
You may not have a lot to give

But I'll still take it
F        Am
Make me, hate me
Dm
Bottle me up inside
Bb                F/A             C
It's better there than where I've been


🎸 Verse 3:

Dm        Bb            Dm
A perfect heart I never was
          Bb         Dm
I lied to everyone I loved
             Bb           C
It made them love me even more

And made me hate myself


🎸 Chorus 3:

Bb            C              Dm         F                    Bb
I'll leave it all behind and justify it just between you and me
         C       Dm               F
I buried all the misery, but it's clawing back now
Bb                 C                       Dm
It's every way you move and everything you do
                     F                      Bb
You'll never make me forget the things I've seen
          C                  Dm
I know my secret's safe with me
