[Intro]
Am  G
[Chorus]
   AmTook a while, but I made it thGrough
   AmIf I could show you the hell I'd been Gto
   AmKept climbing til one day I looked Gback
   AmWas so high, I couldn't think to Gland
[Verse 1]
   AmAnd then one mFoment I was blGown aAmway
   AmAnd there was nFothing left that GI could sAmay or dGo
[Chorus]
   AmTook a while, but I made it thGrough
   AmIf I could show you the hell I'd been Gto
   AmLost the light, but then the sun was sGhining
   AmCouldn't hide it and I wasn't tGrying
[Verse 2]
   AmAnd all those pFeople I thought knGew me Amwell
After Fall that time, they cGouldn't tAmell
I lFost my soul, was jGust a shAmell
There was nothing left that I could lGose
[Chorus]
   AmTook a while, but I made it thGrough
   AmIf I could show you the hell I'd been Gto
   AmLost the light, but then the sun was sGhining

[Verse 3]
   AmWas I bFecoming what I hGad to bAme?
Was that the trFuth I was suppGosed to sAmee?
I may have never found my way to yGou
   AmAnd all those sFummer days were lGike a dAmream
   GWoke me from a restless slAmeep

[Intro]

Am G

[Chorus]

Am G

Took a while, but I made it through

Am G

If I could show you the hell I'd been to

Am G

Kept climbing til one day I looked back

Am G

Was so high, I couldn't think to land

[Verse 1]

Am F G Am

And then one moment I was blown away

Am F G Am G

And there was nothing left that I could say or do

[Chorus]

Am G

Took a while, but I made it through

Am G

If I could show you the hell I'd been to

Am G

Lost the light, but then the sun was shining

Am G

Couldn't hide it and I wasn't trying

[Verse 2]

Am F G Am

And all those people I thought knew me well

F G Am

After all that time, they couldn't tell

F G Am

I lost my soul, was just a shell

There was nothing left that I could lose

[Chorus]

Am G

Took a while, but I made it through

Am G

If I could show you the hell I'd been to

Am G

Lost the light, but then the sun was shining

Am G

Couldn't hide it and I wasn't trying

[Verse 3]

Am F G Am

Was I becoming what I had to be?

F G Am

Was that the truth I was supposed to see?

I may have never found my way to you

Am F G Am

And all those summer days were like a dream

G Am

Woke me from a restless sleep

N.C.

Made me quiet, had me weak

N.C.

And all the weight of all the world came rushing through

[Outro]

Am C F G
