[Intro]
Ah!
[Refrain]
C   C7    F  D7
Ooh-ooh, ooh  (Yeah)
C   C7    F
Ooh-ooh, ooh
[Verse 1]
     C                C7
It's hard to make yourself believe
     F                         D7
That it'll get better when you feel defeated
    C              C7                F
And carrying on is easier said than done
          C                 C7
It took a while to see that I was in need
   F                  D7
Of help from somebody else but she keeps
  C                   C7            F
Reminding me that I'm not the only one
[Pre-Chorus]
        E7                                    F
And babe, I would've told you this was gonna happen
                       C
If I had known that it would
                F                              E7           F
But now there's less time and more things that I need to say
And I'm afraid
[Chorus]
                C           C7                 F
That there will always be a part of me that's holding on
    D7                  G
And still believes that everything is fine
               G7
And that I'm living a normal life
      C            C7
But until somebody sits me down
    F                 E7
And tells me that I'm different now
     F             G            C
I'll always be the way I always am
Oh, oh
[Refrain]
Ooh-ooh, ooh (Yeah)
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
    C              C7
My apologies, it's such a shame
F                  D7
I never planned to feel this way
        C                    C7                 F
But the more that I try, the more I'm seeing a difference
I'm not gonna lie
[Pre-Chorus]
                 Dm        G
And now I get to sit down
                   C                  C7
And I'm happy to admit now, I'm on my way
                   Dm     G
It seems I'm not invincible
                     C
But I'm bored of the pain and I need to explain
[Chorus]
                 C           C7                 F
Yeah, there will always be a part of me that's holding on
    D7                  G
And still believes that everything is fine
               G7
And that I'm living a normal life
      C            C7
But until somebody sits me down
    F                E7
And tells me why I'm different now
     F             G            C
I'll always be the way I always am
Yeah, yeah
[Outro]
