Bittersweet

C#m

Release the gate of Beautiful

I am staying down to hide in rooms away

These tears they build me up a house,

Then they pour on down and wash the house away

And I am left to fight the waves

F#m

(He's around me constantly )

(Chorus)

E B

I kissed these lonely tears I shed goodbye

C#m B

Because I’m bittersweet, without You Father there’s no reason

I kissed these lonely tears I shed goodbye

C#m B

Because I'm bittersweet

Close up my heart it makes me feel,

A C# B

Like these rooms will close in, locking all the doors

With these hands and broken stones,

A C# B A

I have built a legacy and now it’s time to move on, move on

F#m
