GmHonestly, Dmit's easier
EbTo let myself Fforget
BbStill, I check my vital Fsigns
BbChoked up, I realEbize
GmI've been less than Dmhalf myself

To Bbunderstand all Ebsides
But GmI'm just trying to Dmfind myself
Through Ebsomeone else's Feyes
So Bbshow me what to dFo
To restBbart this heart of Ebmine
GmHow do I forgDmive myself
For Eblosing so much Ftime?
Wake CmupF

There's a chain Cmreaction in your Fheart
Muscle memoBbry, remembering who you Ebare
Stand CmupF  
Fall in Bblove again and again and Ebagain
Wage Cmwar on graviFty
There's so much worth fighting Bbfor, Ebyou'll see
Another CmdomiGmno Ffalls
And another BbdomiFno Gm/Ebfalls
A Bblittle at a Ftime

I let the Gmscale tip and feel Dmall of it
It's Ebuncomfortable but Fright
BbWe were born to Ftry
To Bbsee each other Ebthrough
To know and Gmlove ourselves and Dmothers well
Is the most Ebdifficult and Fmeaningful
Work we'll ever Bbdo
