              Intro: A  G 
 
 
A      Am                   G 
Took a while, but I made it through 
Am                                      G 
If I could show you the hell I'd been to 
Am                                 G 
Kept climbing?til one day I looked back 
Am                               G 
Was so high, I couldn't think to land 
 
 
Verse 1:
Am             F                 Am 
And then one moment I was blown away 
Am            F                         Am     G 
And there was nothing left that I could say or do 
 
 
 
Am                          G 
Took a while, but I made it through 
Am                                    G 
If I could show you the hell I'd been to 
Am                                   G 
Lost the light, but then the sun was shining 
Am                               G 
Couldn't hide it and I wasn't trying 
 
 
Verse 2:
Am            F                Am 
And all those people I thought knew me well 
Am   F                             Am 
After all that time, they couldn't tell 
  F                        Am 
I lost my soul, was just a shell 
                            G 
There was nothing left that I could lose 
 
 
 
Am                          G 
Took a while, but I made it through 
Am                                    G 
If I could show you the hell I'd been to 
Am                                   G 
Lost the light, but then the sun was shining 
Am                               G 
Couldn't hide it and I wasn't trying 
 
 
Verse 3: 
Am      F 
Was I becoming what I had to be? 
Am         F                         Am 
Was that the truth I was supposed to see? 
Am                              G 
I may have never found my way to you 
Am            F                       Am 
And all those summer days were like a dream 
G                       Am 
Woke me from a restless sleep 
G                     Am 
Made me quiet, had me weak 
Am                                               G 
And all the weight of all the world came rushing through 
 
 
Outro 
Am  C  F  G  (5x) 
Am  Dm G  Fmaj7 
F
