[Intro]
D A Bm D
G D A
G D Bm G D G A
[Verse 1]
BmNo one ever made me feel as smalGl as you didD  
No one made me feel as cursedA  
BmI'd lie awake in bed just staring Gat the ceilingD  
Wondering if things would get Aworse
[Pre-Chorus 1]
GI was trapped unBmder your thumb
ABelieving when you called it love
[Chorus]
DBut I will forgive myself
And start to Alet it go
Accept that Bmwho you chose to be
Was out of Gmy control
And though it Dmight be hard
To beAgin again
I'll write myBmself a brand new story
With a haGppy end, I survived
So Atonight
I am Bmtaking back my Glife
And I'll show you, That AI am not nothingD  
A G D Bm G A
[Verse 2]
I Bmkept my head above the water
G'Til the momentD, when all the elements aligneAd
And BmI could fly away to heal my Gbroken spiritA  
And Dleave my demons Afar behind
[Pre-Chorus 2]
GYou always said that BmI was weak
But the Abravest thing I did was leave
[Chorus]
DSo I will forgive myself
And start to Alet it go
Accept that Bmwho you chose to be
Was out of Gmy control
And though it Dmight be hard
To beAgin again
I'll write myBmself a brand new story
With a Ghappy end, I survived
So Atonight
I am Bmtaking back my Glife
And I'll show you, That AI am not nothingD  
[Bridge]
   ALooking up at the sDky
   GI think BmI see the Astart of a suGnriseD  
[Chorus]
GAnd I will Dforgive myself
And start to Alet it go
Accept that Bmwho you chose to be
Was out of Gmy control
And though it Dmight be hard
To beAgin again
I'll write myBmself a brand new story
With a haGppy end, I survived
So Atonight
I am Bmtaking back my Glife
And I'll show you, That AI am not nothingBm  
  GI'll show you
                  A  G*
That I am not nothing

[Intro]

D A Bm D

G D A

G D Bm G D G A

[Verse 1]

Bm G D

No one ever made me feel as small as you did

No one made me feel as cursed

Bm G D

I'd lie awake in bed just staring at the ceiling

Wondering if things would get worse

[Pre-Chorus 1]

G Bm

I was trapped under your thumb

Believing when you called it love

[Chorus]

But I will forgive myself

And start to let it go

Accept that who you chose to be

Was out of my control

And though it might be hard

To begin again

I'll write myself a brand new story

With a happy end, I survived

So tonight

Bm G

I am taking back my life

A D

And I'll show you, That I am not nothing

A G D Bm G A

[Verse 2]

I kept my head above the water

G D A

'Til the moment, when all the elements aligned

Bm G A

And I could fly away to heal my broken spirit

D A

And leave my demons far behind

[Pre-Chorus 2]

G Bm

You always said that I was weak

But the bravest thing I did was leave

[Chorus]

So I will forgive myself

And start to let it go

Accept that who you chose to be

Was out of my control

And though it might be hard

To begin again

I'll write myself a brand new story

With a happy end, I survived

So tonight

Bm G

I am taking back my life

A D

And I'll show you, That I am not nothing

[Bridge]

A D

Looking up at the sky

G Bm A G D

I think I see the start of a sunrise

[Chorus]

G D

And I will forgive myself

And start to let it go

Accept that who you chose to be

Was out of my control

And though it might be hard

To begin again

I'll write myself a brand new story

With a happy end, I survived

So tonight

Bm G

I am taking back my life

A Bm

And I'll show you, That I am not nothing

I'll show you

A G

That I am not nothing
