intro: pm[ E5 ] for as long as it takes throw in an Esus and some open strings
all pm
[ E5 ] [ E5 ]
Take your closest friends
[ E5 ] [ A5 ]
Look them right in the eyes they will not lie
[ A5 ] [ G5 ] [ E5 ]
They will not wince
[ E5 ] [ A5 ] [ E5 ] [ A5 ] [ E5 ](LISTEN FOR RYTHEM)
[ E5 ] [ E5 ]
And when someone new steps in
[ E5 ] [ A5 ]
Give them time, give them mind, open your life
[ A5 ] [ E5 ]
But don't let them win
A5 E5 A5 A5 E5 (SAME5 AS BEFORE5 )
[ B5 ] [ A5 ]
Cause certain types of souls delight in breaking
[ A5 ] [ E5 ] [ E5 ]
Lately all of my hopes have been tied up with a stranger
[Badd4]
She made me think I could change her
[ Ab5 ] [ A5 ]
She made me think that my love was her own
[ A5 ] [ E5 ] [ E5 ]
Because she came from a broken home she was alone in her anger
[Badd4]
And Claimed she couldn't remember
[ Ab5 ] [ A5 ]
But the pain, it was etched in her bones
[Badd4]
If a seed never sees the sunlight
[ A5 ] [ E5 ]
Tell me, how the hell it's supposed to grow?
E/E5 THROW IN SOME5 OPEN STRINGS AND E5
[ E5 ] [ E5 ] [ E5 ]
If you have a daughter stay
[ E5 ] [ A5 ]
By her side, teach her right, her's is your life
[ A5 ] [ G5 ] [ E5 ]
Learn from your mistakes
[ A5 ] [ E5 ] [ A5 ] [ A5 ] [ E5 ]
[ E5 ] [ E5 ] [ E5 ]
And if you're sent a son
[ E5 ] [ A5 ]
Be a man, hold his hand, show him love can
[ A5 ] [ E5 ]
Be what makes men strong.
[ B5 ] [ A5 ]
Cause honesty is all you need to carry on
[ A5 ] [ E5 ] [ E5 ]
Lately all of my hopes have been tied up with a stranger
[Badd4]
She made me think I could change her
[ Ab5 ] [ A5 ]
She made me think that my love was her own
[ A5 ] [ E5 ] [ E5 ]
Because she came from a broken home she was alone in her anger
[Badd4]
And claimed she couldn't remember
[ Ab5 ] [Add9]
But the pain, it was etched in her bones
[Badd4]
If a seed never sees the sunlight
[ A5 ] [ E5 ]
Tell me, how the hell it's supposed to grow?

[ A5 ]
So much for heartbreak
[ C#5 ]
I'm letting go
[ Ab5 ]
And I'll find forgiveness
[ A5 ]
For all of that went wrong in the world
[ C#5 ]
For I know that goodness
Is all we can hold
[ Ab5 ] ([A9] let ring and play slow)
Yeah, all of the rest will fade
[ A5 ]
As the dissonance resolves.
Then the chorus again
outro:
[Badd4] [ A5 ]
If a seed never sees
[Badd4] [ A5 ]
i said if a seed never sees the sun
[Badd4] [ A5 ]
if a seed never sees the sunlight
[ A5 ] [ E5 ]
tell me how the hell is it supposed to grow
