"Brave" - Sara Bareilles
Guitar Tab

Capo on 3

G
You can be amazing, you can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug
Em                                                                   C
You can be the outcast, or be the backlash of somebody's lack of love
   D
Or you can start speaking up
G
Nothing's gonna hurt you, the way that words do when they settle 'neath your skin
Em                                                         C
Kept on the inside and no sunlight, sometimes a shadow wins
      D
But I wonder what would happen if you

G                D
Say what you wanna say
Em                D    C
And let the words fall out
      Em D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
G                 D
With what you wanna say
Em                D    C
And let the words fall out
      Em D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave

G
I just wanna see you
C
I just wanna see you
Em
I just wanna see you
D
I wanna see you be brave

G
I just wanna see you
C
I just wanna see you
Em
I just wanna see you
D
I wanna see you be brave

G
Everybody's been there, everybody's been stared down by the enemy
Em                                                                    C
Fallen for the fear and done some disappearing, bow down to the mighty
          D
Don't run, stop holding your tongue
G
Maybe there's a way out of the cage where you live
Em                                            C
Maybe one of these days you can let the light in
        D
Show me how big your brave is

G                D
Say what you wanna say
Em                D    C
And let the words fall out
      Em D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
G                 D
With what you wanna say
Em                D    C
And let the words fall out
      Em D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave

Em              G
And since, your history of silence

**Won't do you any good

Did you think it would?**
Em                G
Let your words be anything but empty
D
Why don't you tell them the truth?

G                D
Say what you wanna say
Em                D    C
And let the words fall out
      Em D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
G                 D
With what you wanna say
Em                D    C
And let the words fall out
      Em D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave

G
I just wanna see you
C
I just wanna see you
Em
I just wanna see you
D
I wanna see you be brave

G
I just wanna see you
C
I just wanna see you
Em
I just wanna see you
D
       See you be brave

G
I just wanna see you
C
I just wanna see you
Em
I just wanna see you
D

G
I just wanna see you
C
I just wanna see you
Em
I just wanna see you
D
