Intro
C G Em D .
 
 
Verse 1
C GYou started life as double lines nobody planned for
Em DWiped all your mother's tears, growing up too fast
C GAnd all alone, you played a role you never asked for
Em DFeeling everybody's fears, but what choice did you have?
 
Pre-Chorus
C GYour parents were fighting, your younger brothers were crying
Em DAnd you were a soldier in hiding in your bedroom
C GTrying to keep it locked up inside, and you just ignored all the sirens
Em DIf I could Go back in time and try to write it all out
 
Chorus
C G Note to self..
EmI know you had to get us through some hell
D C You couldn't put a name to what you felt
G'Cause you never hurt like that before
Em DBut you ain't alone anymore, no
C GI got you now .
 
 
Post-Chorus
Em D(I got you now) .
 
 
Verse 2
C GLosing love and all your friends and a little bit of innocence
Em DNo one asked you anything, just made you feel guilty
C GSo you try to keep between the lines, from the backseat of your life
Em DCouldn't control anything but the size of your jeans
 
Pre-Chorus
C GEven the praying and preaching, they couldn't fight off the demons
Em DAnd you were silently screaming, "Somebody listen to me"
C GYou didn't know what you needed, you wouldn't show any weakness
Em DIf there was a way you could read it, girl, I'd tell you now
 
Chorus
C G Note to self..
EmI know you had to get us through some hell
D C You couldn't put a name to what you felt
G'Cause you never hurt like that before
Em DBut you ain't alone anymore, no
 
Bridge
C GAnd all of the screams that just stayed in your head
Em DAll of the questions that scared you to death
C GIt was a prison and you got us out
Em DBut you can let go, girl, you can break down 'cause
CI got you now.
G EmYeah, I got you now
D COh (I got you now)
G(Praying and preaching, they couldn't fight off the demons)
Em D(Somebody listen to me)..
(I got you now)
 
Chorus
C G Note to self..
EmJust know that it's okay to ask for help
D C You don't gotta be afraid 'cause.
GI can tell you, life and people let you down
Em DBut where I'm standing here and now..
It all works out
