intro:
Cadd9 G G G
(1 bar then 3 bars)

verse 1:
G                 Cadd9             G
Someone took your truth and lied to it
                   Cadd9
Someone stole your youth, and tried to
  G                Cadd9             G
Expose your sweet, innocent soul too soon

G                    Cadd9                    G
Like the shadow of a thief, breaking in every night,
                 Cadd9                     G
A scene of sharp relief, every time you close your eyes
                 Cadd9       G
You still see it; it follows you

G D/F#

chorus:

   Cadd9             G
So you don't have to be quiet,
    Cadd9                   G
And you don't have to feel afraid,
Cadd9            G
This is not your war to fight,
           D/F#
And you're not to blame

      Cadd9              G
Cause I know you've been stumbling,
                Cadd9             G
Searching for a place to hide and heal,
Cadd9             G                   D/F#
Somewhere you can rest, give yourself in to fear...

        Cadd9 G
You're safe here, you're safe here.

G

verse 2:
G               Cadd9                 G
Someone took my rights and treated me wrong,
                 Cadd9                G
Someone stole my life, but i am still strong
          Cadd9           G    D/F#
In silent ways they don't see

chorus:
   Cadd9             G
So we don't have to be quiet,
    Cadd9                   G
And we don't have to feel afraid,
Cadd9            G
This is not our war to fight,
          D/F#
And we're not to blame

      Cadd9              G
Cause I know you've been stumbling,
                Cadd9             G
Searching for a place to hide and heal,
Cadd9             G                   D/F#
Somewhere you can rest, give yourself in to fear...

        Cadd9 G
You're safe here, you're safe here.
        Cadd9 G
You're safe here, you're safe here.

G D/F#

You are not what happened to you,
G
You are not what happened to you,
Cadd9                        G   D/F#
You are not what happened to you.
Cadd9
You are not what happened to you,
