Key: Bm

Intro:

| Bm  A | G | 4x



Verse 1:
Bm         A      G
 I wanted to find somewhere to hide
Bm      A         G
 And I opened up and left those fears inside
Bm         A    G
 And I wanted to be anyone else
Bm       A       G
 Only to find that there was no one there but me

Chorus:
Bm      A       G
 But I woke up to the real life
Bm       A        G      D5/F# G5
 And I realized it's not worth running from any---more
Bm        A        G
 When there was nowhere left to hide I found out
   Bm           A        G        D5/F# G5
That nothing's real here, but I won't stop now until I find a better part of me

Verse 2:
Bm      A        G
 I let those hard days get me down
Bm       A        G
 And all the things I hate got in my way
Bm       A        G
 I could've screamed without a sound
Bm         A        G
 I found myself silenced by those things they say


Chorus:
Bm      A       G
 But I woke up to the real life
Bm       A        G      D5/F# G5
 And I realized it's not worth running from any---more
Bm        A        G
 When there was nowhere left to hide I found out
   Bm           A        G        D5/F# G5    A
That nothing's real here, but I won't stop now until I find a better part of me

That's where I'll find out
