[Verse 2]
C#mAmazing how you conquered me, chained me in servility, and A#m7made me see
The Emmaj9world the way you told me to, but I was young and didn’t have a Dmway to know the G#truth

But I Bmdon’t intend to F#m7suffer any Em9longerF#7

That C#m7b5stood between my mind and my F#heart, this is A7where I’ll G#7start
[Chorus]
