verse 1 
Bm                              G            D 
No one ever made me feel as small as you did 
                             A 
No one made me feel as cursed 
Bm                                G              D 
I'd lie awake in bed just staring at the ceiling 
                              A 
Wondering if things would get worse 
 
Pre-Chorus 1 
G               Bm 
I was trapped under your thumb 
A 
Believing when you called it love 
 
 
D 
But I will forgive myself 
             A 
And start to let it go 
            Bm 
Accept that who you chose to be 
           G 
Was out of my control 
              D 
And though it might be hard 
     A 
To begin again 
             Bm 
I'll write myself a brand new story 
         G 
With a happy end, I survived 
   A 
So tonight 
     Bm             G 
I am taking back my life 
                        A                D 
And I'll show you, That I am not nothing

verse 2 
  Bm 
I kept my head above the water 
G              D                             A 
'Til the moment, when all the elements aligned 
    Bm                          G            A 
And I could fly away to heal my broken spirit 
    D               A 
And leave my demons far behind 
 
Pre-Chorus 2 
G                    Bm 
You always said that I was weak 
        A 
But the bravest thing I did was leave 
 
 
D 
So I will forgive myself 
             A 
And start to let it go 
            Bm 
Accept that who you chose to be 
           G 
Was out of my control 
              D 
And though it might be hard 
     A 
To begin again 
             Bm 
I'll write myself a brand new story 
       G 
With a happy end, I survived 
   A 
So tonight 
     Bm             G 
I am taking back my life 
                        A                D 
And I'll show you, That I am not nothing 
 
Bridge 
A                     D 
   Looking up at the sky 
G          Bm        A            G     D 
   I think I see the start of a sunrise 
 
 
G          D 
And I will forgive myself 
             A 
And start to let it go 
            Bm 
Accept that who you chose to be 
           G 
Was out of my control 
              D 
And though it might be hard 
     A 
To begin again 
             Bm 
I'll write myself a brand new story 
         G

                        A                Bm 
And I'll show you, That I am not nothing 
G 
  I'll show you 
A                  G* 
That I am not nothing
