[Verse 1]
Am Em Dm Am So now, tell me how your story goes... have you ever suffered? F Dm E E7 Am If so, did you get better or have you never quite recovered from it? Em Dm Am F Did you find your lover laying in your bedroom with another and then Dm E E7 Am Did you let it hover over you and everything else well after the fact?
[Verse 2]
Em Dm Am Show me all your bruises... I know everybody wears them F Dm E E7 They broadcast the pain-how you hurt, how you reacted- Am Em Dm Am F Did cancer take your child? Did your father have a heart attack? Dm E E7 Am Have you had a moment forced the whole heart to grow or retract? Em Dm Em F# Or just shrink? Does the heart shrink?
[Pre-Chorus]
F E Tell me everything, tell me everything you know
Were you told as a child how cruel the whole world can be?
F#
Did anybody ever tell you that?Tell me what your purpose is, who it was that put you here and why?
E
Did anybody really put your here at all?And what of those necessities,
Like how to cope with tragedy and pain?
F
Did anybody ever show you how?When it hits will my heart burst or break or grow strong?
Is there really only one way to know now?
[Chorus 1]
Am Am Bm C Dm F E Am I'm not sure if I'm ready yet to find out the hard way Bm C Am How strong I am, what I'm made of Am Bm C Dm F E Am I'm not sure I am ready yet to walk through the fire Bm C Bm I'm not sure I can handle it Bm Bm C Dm F E Do you think if the heart keeps on shrinking, Bm C Bm One day there will be no heart at all? Am And how long does it take? Am Bm C Dm F E Am Am I better off just bursting or breaking? C G F Cause I don't see my heart getting strong
[Bridge]
Tell your stories to me, show your bruises
E Let's see what humanity is capable of handling Am She lost her kid, only seven, to cancer G Am E She answered with faith in her god and carried on, F While he was attacked by his son and was stabbed in his E Stomach and his back and his arms, he showed me scars Am G Am 82 years old, told me, "I still have my daughter and my wife G Am And I still have my life and my son"
[Verse 4]
F Tell me what your worst fears are, I bet they look a lot like mine G Am Tell me what you think about when you can't fall asleep at night F Tell me that you're struggling, tell me that you're scared, no, tell me that you're terrified of life G Am Tell me that it's difficult to not think of death sometimes
Tell me how you lost, tell me how he left, tell me how she left
F G Am Tell me how you lost everything that you had, tell me that it ain't ever coming back F Tell me about God, tell me about love, tell me that it's all of the above G F Say you think of everything in fear, I bet you're not the only one who does
[Outro 1]
F G Am Bm Am G F Everyone in the world comes at some point to suffering Am F I wonder when I will, I wonder F G Am Bm Am G F Everyone is out searching for someone or something Am F I wonder what I'll find, I wonder
[Outro 2]
F G Am Bm Am G F Everyone in the world comes at some point to suffering Am F I wonder when I will, I wonder F G Am Bm Am G F Everyone is out searching for someone or something F# F I wonder what I'll find, I wonder
[Outro 3]
F# F I wonder what I'll find, I wonder F# F I wonder what I'll find F# F I wonder what I'll find
I wonder what I'll find
