F               G
You know me the best
            Am                          C
You know my worst, see me hurt, but you don’t judge
F                     G            Am         C
That, right there, is the scariest feeling

If all it is is eight letters
       G           Am     C
Why am I in my own way?
         F
Why do I pull you close
    G                Am       C
And then ask you for space
          F           G

          F
Isn’t it amazing
           G
How almost every line
       Am
On our hands align
          C
When your hand’s in mine
              F
It’s like I’m whole again

Isn’t that a sign
         Am             C
I should speak my mind
