[INTRO]
C# G# A#m F#(Mmm...)
(It's time.)
[VERSE 1]
C# FmI was a heavy anchor, dragging you down
F# C#You were the only light in a darkened town
C# FmYou gave me your kindness when I had none to give
F# C#You showed me the way that a good man should live
C# FmI took all your patience, I took all your grace
F# C#And I left you with tears running down your face...
[PRE-CHORUS]
C#But I’m paying back the kindness, I’m evening the score!
FmI’m leaving all my demons right outside the door!
A#mIt’s a debt of the soul that I carry in my chest
F#I’m giving you my heart and I’m giving you my best!
C#I’m washing my hands, I’m clearing my name
Fm D#mI’m done with the excuses, I’m done with the game!
[COMPLETE SILENCE]
G#Watch me change.
[CHORUS]
C#I’m stepping out the dark, I’m turning the key!
FmI’m breaking every chain that was holding onto me!
A#mI might have a past that’s jagged and torn
F#But right here today, a new rhythm is born!
C# FI'm paying you back for the love that I see
D#m F#And I’m finally meeting...
C# FmThe man I’m trying to be.
F# C#(Yeah, the man I'm trying to be!)
[VERSE 2]
C#It took hitting the bottom to open my eyes
FmTo see through the smoke and my own foolish pride
F#You stayed in my corner when everyone ran
C#You held onto the boy so he could grow to a man
C# FmSo I'm building a house with these two calloused hands
F# C#A place where our future is finally safe to stand.
[PRE-CHORUS]
C#But I’m paying back the kindness, I’m evening the score!
FmI’m leaving all my demons right outside the door!
A#mIt’s a debt of the soul that I carry in my chest
F#I’m giving you my heart and I’m giving you my best!
C#I’m washing my hands, I’m clearing my name
Fm D#mI’m done with the excuses, I’m done with the game!
