VERSE 1:
   Abm      F#   B
If weakness is a wound
     Abm    F#     E
That no one wants to speak of
     Abm    F#          B              E
Then ?cool? is just how far we have to fall
Abm    F#   B
I  am  not  immune
  Abm  F#   E
I only want to be loved
Abm        F#   B              E
But I feel safe behind the firewall
      B                 F#
Can I lose my need to impress?
                E        B          F#~
If you want the truth, I need to confess

CHORUS:
E   B     F#
I?m not alright
             E     B        F#
I?m broken inside, broken inside
    E   B     F#
And all I go through
               E       B           F#
It leads me to you, it leads me to you

VERSE 2:
Abm  F#       B
Burn away the pride
Abm   F#       E
Bring me to my weakness
     Abm  F#      B              E
Till everything I hide behind is gone
    Abm      F#   B
And when I?m open wide
     Abm     F#      E
With nothing left to cling to
Abm  F#      B                E
Only you are there to lead me on
      B                       F#
Cause honestly, I?m not that strong

CHORUS:
E   B     F#
I?m not alright
             E     B        F#
I?m broken inside, broken inside
    E   B     F#
And all I go through
               E       B           F#
It leads me to you, it leads me to you

BRIDGE:
      E           Abm         B      F#
And I move, and I move, and I move...closer to you
      E           Abm         B      F#
And I move, and I move, and I move...closer to you
      E           Abm         B      F#
And I move, and I move, and I move...closer to you
      E           Ab          B      F#~
And I move, and I move, and I move...

FINAL CHORUS:
E   B     F#
I?m not alright
             E     B        F#~  *pause*
I?m broken inside, broken inside

*(Start singing on the next F#)*
         E     B        F#
broken inside, broken inside
    E   B      F#
And all I go through
            E    B           F#
Leads me to you, leads me to you

E   B     F#     E   B     F#     E   B     F#    E        B          F#
I?m not alright, I?m not alright, I?m not alright...that?s why I need you

The tab was originally done by Jared Lindstrom , I just interpreted the verse notes a
little differently which was really hard because there is no guitar in the verses only bass
that is in drop D. So the chords I put for the verses are really non-existant in the 
song but I thought they make an okay fill. Thanks Jared for a great tab. Roman.
