[Intro] D Bm A G [Verse]
D
[tab]D
Where do I start

   Bm               A               G
If I could tell you everything that I have learned so far

             D
Then you could be

D
One step ahead

   Bm               A               G
Of all the painful memories still running thru my head

     A               Bm      G
I wonder how much different things would be

             D
Dear younger me,
[Instrumental] D Bm A G
              D
Dear younger me

      D
I cannot decide

   Bm               A               G
Do I give some speech about how to get the most out of your life

           D
Or do I go deep

     D
And try to change

     Bm                 A                G
The choices that you'll make cuz they're choices that made me

A              Bm            G
And even though I love this crazy life

      A              Bm           G
Sometimes I wish it was a smoother ride

            D                 Bm A G
Dear younger me, dear younger me
[Instrumental] Em D A x2
Em                  D
Oh if I knew then what I know now

A
Condemnation would've had no power

   Em                  D             A
My joy my pain would've never been my worth

Em                  D
If I knew then what I know now

           A
Would've not been hard to figure out

     G                     A
What I would've changed if I had heard

D
Dear younger me

     D
It's not your fault

Bm                         A         G
You were never meant to carry this beyond the cross, Lord

              D    Bm A G
Dear younger me
[Bridge]
          D
You are holy

          D
You are righteous

          D
You are one of the redeemed

     Bm
Set apart a brand new heart

G
Oh you are free indeed

         D
And every mountain every valley

D
Thru each heartache you will see

       Bm
Every moment brings you closer

A       G
To who you were meant to be

             D                Bm A G
Dear younger me, dear younger me

         D
You are holy

D
You are righteous

D
You are one of the redeemed

     Bm
Set apart a brand new heart

G               D
Oh you are free indeed [x3]
