Lose Myself

Intro: A D C#m Bm (3x)

A               D
I used to do it for the love a long 
time ago
        C#m     Bm              A
And all I ever wanted was love
A               D
I used to love without fear a long 
time ago
       C#m       Bm             A
And all I ever wanted was love
A                       D
Then somebody came around and tried 
to hurt me
C#m                             
Tried to make me feel like I was 
Bm
unworthy
A                       D
Took a pure love and tried to make 
it dirty
C#m                             Bm
Truth was they never did deserve me
A (Switch to 1st position)
No!

Chorus:
A               D       C#m     
I had to lose myself so I could 
            Bm
love you better
A                       D        
I had to lose myself, had to lose
          C#m                      
 myself so I could love you better
Bm

A               D       D
Had to lose myself, had to lose 
myself
C#m                     Bm
So I could love you better
A                       D
Had to lose myself in love
C#m                     Bm
And that’s just the way it is…

Repeat Strum pattern for verses

Couldn’t tell me I was love when I 
needed it
When, all I ever wanted was love.
Should a told me just me because!
I’m worth receiving it
But all I ever wanted was love
There’s is something awkward about 
the selflessness it takes to
Give love and the good that it makes
 you!
True love can never really forsake 
you
But it took a little while just for 
me to see!

Chorus:
I had to lose myself so I could love
 you better

I had to lose myself, had to lose 
myself so I could love you better
Had to lose myself, had to lose 
myself
So I could love you better
Had to lose myself in love
And that’s just the way it is…

I had a paralyzing fear of facing 
failure
And I couldn’t love you perfectly 
with fear in my head
So I peerlessly had to face the 
danger
So I could come back and love you 
whole instead
All of your soul I said!
So I could make it better

Chorus:
I had to lose myself so I could love
 you better
I had to lose myself, had to lose 
myself so I could love you better
Had to lose myself, had to lose 
myself
So I could love you better
Had to lose myself in love
And that’s just the way it is…


B-Sec:
F#m
And so it goes that I never meant to
 hurt you
Bm
Couldn’t stay but I never meant to 
desert you
C#m
Whole lot a things I just had to 
work thru
Bm
Time to heal and restore myself 
worth too
F#m
Confrontation of my fears and 
anxiety
Bm
Cried a whole lot years I suffered 
quietly
C#m
And though it may have taken years I
 can finally!
F#m                               
Tell you that you were always on 
      A
my mind!

Chorus:
A               D       C#m     
I had to lose myself so I could 
            Bm
make it better
A                       D        
I had to lose myself, had to lose
            C#m                Bm
 myself so I could make it better
A                       D
Had to lose myself, had to lose 
myself
C#m                     Bm
So I could make it better
A                       D
Had to lose myself in love
C#m                     Bm
And that was just the way!
