[gtr 2]
    F    G             Am     F
And I have felt the same as you,
    G            Am   F
I've felt the same as you,
    G
I've felt the same.

F  -  C  - Am \

Am - C/B - C  /


Verse 2
-------

[gtr 2]
F      C  Am
Locked inside
    Am  C/B  C 
The   only   place
      F    C   Am
Where you feel sheltered,
      Am  C/B   C
Where you feel safe.
    F    G   Am
You lost yourself
        F      G   Am
In your search to find
F    G     Am    
Something else
   Am   G  F
to hide behind.


PreChorus2: (repeat the same chords as in first prechorus)
----------

    C7M                             F
The fearful always preyed upon your confidence.
         G        Am
Did they see the consequence,
                      C      C/B
when they pushed you around?
     Am                                 F
The arrogant build kingdoms made of the different ones,
         G          Am                          C     C/B     F
Breaking them 'til they've become just another crown.


(Repeat Chorus)


Verse 3
-------

  F    G  Am     F     G   Am              (use bar chords here)
Refuse to feel anything at all,
  F    G   Am
Refuse to slip
 Am    G  C
Refuse to fall.
F     G  Am
Can't be weak,
F     G     Am
Can't stand still,
    F     G    Am         Am  G   F
You watch your back 'cause no one will.

-----------
(intro bit [gtr1] comes in here)

C7M                              F          
You don't know why they had to go this far,
       G         Am
Traded your worth for these scars,
               C        C/B
For your only company.
    Am        
And don't believe the lies
                 F               G  Am
That they have told to you. Not one word was true
       C                      C/B              F
you're alright, you're alright, you're alright.
