[Verse 1]
Dm
This hidden thing
C
That you don't see
F
They call them skeletons
C
Don't be scared of them
Dm
'Cause you're still you
C
And I'm still me
F
It's all irrelevant
C
We all got skeletons
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
You could tell me everything
And then we could forget it
C
Baby, you could show me all your demons in a minute
It could be a battle
C
When the words come back around, around
Dm
We don't ever got to tell a lie
And then relive it
C
I could show you demons
Only you could take a minute
F
Show me that you'll be there
C
When the walls come crashing down
[Chorus]
Gm
When you're holding back the words
C
'Cause you're afraid of being hurt
Dm
Just let love in
C
Just let love in
[Verse 2]
Dm
Sink or swim
C
What will it be?
F
We all got skeletons
C
Set them free
Dm
But now I'm over it
C
And I'm under you
F
So tell me everything
C
Take a trip to the moon
[Chorus]
Gm
Oh, when you're holding back the words
C
'Cause you're afraid of being hurt
Dm
Just let love in
C
Just let love in
Gm
Oh, we're only skin and bone
C
We don't have to be alone
Dm
Just let love in
C
Just let love in
[Bridge]
Dm
You could tell me everything
And then we could forget it
C
Baby, you could show me all your demons in a minute
F
It could be a battle
C
When the words come back around, around
Dm
We don't ever got to tell a lie
And then relive it
C
I could show you demons
Only you could take a minute
F
Tell me that you'll be there
C
When the walls come crashing down, down
[Chorus]
Gm
Oh, we're only skin and bone
C
We don't have to be alone
Dm
Just let love in
C
Just let love in
Dm
I just let love in
C
Just let love in
[Chorus]
Gm
Oh, when you're holding back the words
C
'Cause you're afraid of being hurt
Dm
Just let love in
C
Just let love in
Gm
Oh, we're only skin and bone
C
We don't have to be alone
Dm
Just let love in
C
Just let love in
Dm
I just let love in
C
Just let love in
