When playing the verses the B string is emphasized. [Verse 1]
              Am
I know how to speak

                     C  G
And I know where I'm going

            Am
I wanted to seek

              C  G
But I got distracted
[Bridge 1]
           D
It's a mirage

                       C
One that leaves me embarrassed

                              G
Because no one knows me like you

                               D
You know thereâs nothing left for you

                 Am
So I continually move

                            C
Try to pass it through for ya

         D
Cause I bore ya
[Verse 2]
                Am
The past about pain

                C   G
Is timeless and honest

                   Am
So let go of your shame

                     C   G
It's a dead dampened blanket
[Bridge 2]
          D
It's a facade

                        C
Back and look at your training

                           G
There's nobody else like you

                      D
I think I finally explained it

                 Am
So I continue to move

                           C
Between the bank and the blanket

       D
Don't fake it
[Сhorus]
C                       G
I, I'm really gonna try this time

           C                               G
I'm gonna give you my heart in spite of my soul

C                       G
I, I'm really gonna try this time

           C                               G
I'm gonna give you my heart in spite of my soul
[Verse 3]
            Am
I want your name

            C  G
Burnt in my ceiling

              Am
Floats like a flame

               C  G
An unpredictable wonder
[Bridge 3]
                D
You gave it all hope

                       C
That all of this is a circle

                         G
There's nobody else like you

                     D
So many that came before ya

                     Am
This is the moment I choose

                          C
Between the hope and the hardest

       D
To be honest
[Chorus]
C                       G
I, I'm really gonna try this time

       C                                G
Gonna give you my heart in spite of my soul

C                       G
I, I'm really gonna try this time

      C                                 G
Gonna give you my heart in spite of my soul
