If I Never Show Up

G     C             Em
I'm a critic to the core
D6                     G
Don't cut myself slack
       C            Em
I love to tear me down
      D6                   G
And never build me back up
C       Em  D6            G C   
Oh I'll try my best to be honest
Em D6

G          C
I'm not getting sleep tonight
    Em           D6
Cuz my mind's at war
G            C
Burning eyes, wrecked inside
Em       D6           G  C
Taking a step is a chore for me
       Em           D6             
When I feel that my feet have been 
G       C
tied by my own hands
     Em      D6
With no help to stand

[Chorus]
G     C           Em    D6
Summer comes quick keep on waiting
G    C       Em     D6
Told myself I don't need saving
G    C        Em    D6
I ah ah, ah I, I ah ah, ah I
G       C                 Em     
I don't know what I'll do if I 
D6                G C
never show up for me
Em     D6                 G C  Em D6
If I never show up for me

[Verse 2]
G        C
If I die before I wake
  Em            D6
I pray the Lord my soul to take
        G              C
But the truth is I lie awake
          Em                   D6
Wondering if I'm strong enough to 
stay
G               C
Anxiety plagues me can anyone see
Em                 D6
Goes like the rain, tells me I'm 
insane
G                      C
Gotta find a fix quick to get over 
it
             Em                    
They like to say it's cuz I strayed
 D6
 from my faith
                       G C  Em D6
And it's a consequence

[Chorus]
G     C           Em    D6
Summer comes quick keep on waiting
G    C       Em     D6
Told myself I don't need saving
G    C        Em    D6
I ah ah, ah I, I ah ah, ah I
G       C                 Em     
I don't know what I'll do if I 
D6                 G C
never show up for me
Em     D6                 G  C
If I never show up for me
Em     D6
If I never show up

[Bridge]
       C
If the tides get too high
                 G
Would you let me in
       Em
If I'm searching for redemption
                               D6
Would you let the hope crawl beneath
 my skin
    D6
And maybe this time I'll win

[Instrumental]
C G  Em D6 (x2)

[Chorus]
G     C           Em    D6
Summer comes quick keep on waiting
G    C       Em     D6
Told myself I don't need saving
G    C        Em    D6
I ah ah, ah I, I ah ah, ah I
G       C                 Em     
I don't know what I'll do if I 
D6                 G C
never show up for me
Em        D6               G C
I have gotta show up for me
Em        D6               G C
I am stronger than I think
Em        D6               G C
I have gotta show up for me
Em        D6         G
I have gotta show up
