Intro:  D - A - E - D - A (x2)


Verse 1:

                Bm                        A
I didn't reach out, 'cause I didn't need savin'

          Bm                   A
I wasn't drownin', I was just wavin'

       D                    F#m
I apologize for the misunderstandin'

              E      D              A  
But I wasn't fallin', I was just a landin'



Verse 2:

    D   A   E    D            A  
And I'm not over just gettin' started

              Bm               A
I'm not gonna be some dearly departed

           D              F#m
I wouldn't shatter to the touch

         E    D  A   
Baby you worry a little too much



Chorus 1:

              D          E
If you let me be who I'm becomin'

            F#m   G               D           
Stop seein' me as everything I've been

             D             E
You could be free from the wonderin'

       G                     E     G       D
Let me give you somethin' to truly believe in



Verse 2:

D  A   E       D       A
If I'm guilty, it's of murder

               Bm        A
But is killing time so unkind

                 D                    F#m                  
And we take this struggle further and further

        E    D            A
Only to find oh no finish lines



Chorus 2:

              D          E
If you let me be who I'm becomin'

            F#m   G               D           
Stop seein' me as everything I've been

             D             E
You could be free from the wonderin'

       G                     E     G       D
Let me give you somethin' to truly believe in



Bridge:

D      E                           Bm
We can choose to fight the war, Or find the little things

            D                                 E
And there's music in the notes, What's in the space between

You could be free from the wonderin'

In forgiveness
