I am Understood

Am                         C     
Sometimes it's embarrassing to 
       G
talk to you
    Am                           C
To hold a conversation with the 
            G
only one who sees right through
       Am
This version of myself
     C           G
I try to hide behind
      Am                    
I'll bury my face because my 
                 C            G
disgrace will leave me terrified

     Am                F         
And sometimes I'm so thankful for
C          G
 your loyalty
      Am              F
Your love regardless of
        C                 G
The mistakes I make will spoil me
     Am            F             
My confidence is, in a sense, a 
C                G
gift you've given me
         Am           F           
And I'm satisfied to realize 
   C              G
you're all I'll ever need


[Chorus]
     C                           
You looked into my life and never 
  F
stopped
                            Am
And you're thinking all my thoughts
              G
Are so simple, but so beautiful
Continúa después del anuncio
     C                             
And you recite my words right back 
   F
to me
               Am
Before I even speak
               G
You let me know, I am understood


     Am          F
And sometimes I spend my time
      C           G
Just trying to escape
   Am               F             
I work so hard so desperately, in 
    C                  G
an attempt to create space
Am              F                
  Cause I want distance from the 
        C                 G
utmost important thing I know
   Am                  F          
I see your love, then turn my back
     C              G
 and beg for you to go


[Chorus]


*Picking chords

*Am           *F       
  You're the only one who 
     *C       *G
understands completely
*Am           *F       *C       
  You're the only one knows me 
          *G
yet still loves completely


Am, F, C, G x2


     Am             F             
And sometimes the place I'm at is 
C              G
at a loss for words
      Am                 F     
If I think of something worthy I 
             C            G
know that its already yours
     *Am                    *F    
And through the times I've faded 
           *C          *G
and you've outlined me again
        Am              F      
You've just patiently waited, to 
    C                G
bring me back and then


[Chorus]


C, F, G#, F x2


C, F, G#             F   
      The noise has broken my 
        C
defense
         G
Let me embrace salvation
G#                 F          C
  Your voice has broken my defense
         G
Let me embrace salvation
