Capo 3rd Fret

Standard tuning



 Am                                          F
You wanna take, take, take, take, take it away from me.
           C        G
Take it away from me.
 Am                                            F
You can't wait, wait, wait, wait, wait till I'm stumbling.
 G                  Am
Go get carried away.


 Am
Go!


                    Am
And the fears sets in, in an instant.
                F         Dm
Too much of myself gets exposed.
                 Am
This is where I go at my weakest,
                        F                  Dm
When I don't have to be scared to tell the truth.


 F            G              Am          C
Tend to do my best when everything goes wrong.
           F                                      G
That's why sad songs make me happy, cause I don't have to feel alone.


 Am                                          F 
You wanna take, take, take, take, take it away from me.
           C        G
Take it away from me.
 Am                                            F 
You can't wait, wait, wait, wait, wait till I'm stumbling.
 G                       Am
No, you've got me wrong.
                              F           C     G
Oh the nights are lonely with no one else around.
 Am                                          F 
You wanna take, take, take, take, take it away from me.
 G
Go get carried away.


   Am                                         F          Dm
It's never what you've done, it's what you've done lately.
    Am                           F            Dm
Who cares what you're saying, if no ones listening.
 Am                                           F 
You don't have to like me, but you're gonna respect me.
 Am                             F          Dm
I that came from nothing, leave hope in my wake.


 F         G                  Am        C
I got no regrets, but have my days with doubt.
   F                                 G  
To those left in sadness I'll be the one to lead you out.



 Am                                          F 
You wanna take, take, take, take, take it away from me.
           C        G
Take it away from me.
 Am                                            F 
You can't wait, wait, wait, wait, wait till I'm stumbling.
 G                       Am
No, you've got me wrong.
                              F           C     G
Oh the nights are lonely with no one else around.
 Am                                          F 
You wanna take, take, take, take, take it away from me.
 G
Go get carried away.


 Am                              F                  C         G
I reserve my right to feel uncomfortable reserve my right to be afraid.
 Am                      F             G
I make mistakes and I am humbled every step of the way.
 Am                   F               C        G
I want to be a better person. I wanna know the master plan.
 Am                                 F                 G
Cast your stones, cast your judgement, you don't make me who I am.
[x2]


 Am                               F                  C        G
God help those who help themselves, and forget about everyone else.
 Am                                       F     G
You lost your nerve, you missed the point.
 Am                          F                      C      G
God help those with open hands, may they never feel burden again.
 Am                                  F 
Yeah I'll stand up for those who can't.
     G                  Am
I'll close the distance.
