[Intro] C D G D C C D G D C [Verse 1]
                            C
In the basement of an empty house

                            C    D G D C
I slept on the floor like a vagrant

                            C
I braved a Minnesota winter night

                             C    D G D C
And drove to a movie feeling lonely

    C              Em               Am
And as I thawed my heart out by the light

       Em
Of the silver screen

  G                D
I was unaware that you were there

       Am      Em
In the dark, a silhouette

    G               D
Was climbing up the stairs

    C
And what I thought

       Em
In the parking lot

        G                        D
Was like, I just wanna know your name

  C
I drove away

         Em
With not much to say

       G                      D
But in my hand I held a paper bird

Am          C              D
And written on it were the words

   C D G D C    C D G D C
Be brave
[Verse 2]
                           C
Wildflower knew I wasn't well

                               C D G  D C
But on the kitchen floor I got better again

                                     C
I grabbed my keys and drove toward a star

                                    D     Em   D  G  C
And there, I was understood for the first time in my life

      C                 Em            Am
Cause that's when I was introduced to true

      Em
Serendipity

  G
I knew it when

           D
You showed up again

       Am          Em
In the snow, I was always told

     G                     D
Your heart is where you're home

    C
And what I thought

       Em
In the coffee shop

        G                            D
Was like, the last eight hours was a dream

  C
I drove away

         Em
With not much to say

       Am        Em           D
But in my hand I held a paper bird

Am          Em             D
And written on it were the words
[Bridge] C D C C D G C C D
Am G  C       D
O  k, I'll be brave
C D C C D G C C D
Am G  C       D
O  k, I'll be brave
[Verse 3]
    C
And in my mind

      Em
After all this time

        G                         D
I think, ain't life beautiful and strange

    C
I'm blown away

        Em
With no words to say

         Am      Em        D
Cause I, I'll forever be amazed

    Am            Em             D
How I learned the meaning of the phrase

   C D G D C (4x)
Be brave
