Call it a learning process
Ab
And I've never been that quick
Bbm                               Ab
Because I take things as they come
                         Bbm
And I respond how I see fit
                         Ab
But it's easy to get distracted
                           Bbm
As I've been living life abroad
                            Ab
But I'm starved for your acceptance
                       Bbm
And I work for your applause

I'd always envisioned myself as a giver
Bbm         Db      Ebm                Gb             Bbm
But as I reflect, I've left something to be desired
      Db         Ebm               Gb
Not that my heart hasn't ever delivered
Bbm              Bb    Ebm            Bb
But that it's never felt this inspired

         Bbm     Ab         Gb
To have direction, to feel complete
            Bbm        Ab                   Gb
To embrace affection, to end all the woe is me
             Bbm              Ab             Gb
But mainly to harbor the love that I have to give
Bbm               Ab
But for tonight, let's just stay inside
Bbm                Ab
Well it's far too loud and I just want quiet

Db                Ebm
And if we die before we wake
      Gb              Db
I'll blame it on the past mistakes
Ab                   Bbm
Without you I'm not pure
    Ab                  Fm
And without you I'm not clean
          Gb               F
and if im going down with you
             Gb               Bbm
Then you're going down with me

What I'm afraid of is what is certain
Db                    Gb
And what I'm sure of is that it's on me
 Bbm                   Ab
But I'm too tired to be that person
Db                       Gb       Ab
And that person needs to be set free

   Bbm                      Ab      Gb
To harbor the love that I have to give
