[Intro]
Em Am x3, C D
[Verse 1]
G D I've given up, I'm giving up slowly, C I'm blending in so you won't even know me Em D Am Em C apart from this whole world that shares my fate G D C This one last bullet you mention is my one last shot at redemption Em D Am Em C because I know to live you must give your life away
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C G D And I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity Em C G D I've been locked inside that house all the while You hold the key Em C G D And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me Am C And even though, there's no way in knowing where to go, D promise I'm going because
[Chorus]
G D C D I---I gotta get outta here G D C D I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake G D C D I---I gotta get outta here Em D And I'm begging You, I'm begging You, C D G I'm begging You to be my escape.
[Verse 2]
G D I'm giving up on doing this alone now C Cause I've failed and I'm ready to be shown how Em D Am Em C He's told me the way and I'm trying to get there G D And this life sentence that I'm serving C I admit that I'm every bit deserving Em D Am Em C But the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C G D And I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity Em C G D I've been locked inside that house all the while You hold the key Em C G D And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me Am C And even though, there's no way in knowing where to go, D promise I'm going because
[Chorus]
G D C D I---I gotta get outta here G D C D I'm afraid that this complacency is something I can't shake G D C D I---I gotta get outta here Em D And I'm begging You, I'm begging You, C D Em I'm begging You to be my escape.
[Bridge]
Em D C D I am a hostage to my own humanity Em D C D Self detained and forced to live in this mess I've made Em D C D And all I'm asking is for You to do what You can with me Am C D But I can't ask You to give what You already gave
[Pre-Chorus] (played single strumming)
Em C G D And I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity Em C G D I've been locked inside that house all the while You hold the key Em C G D And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me Am C And even though, there's no way in knowing where to go, D promise I'm going because
[Chorus]
G D C D I---I gotta get outta here G D C D I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake G D C D I---I gotta get outta here Em D And I'm begging You, I'm begging You, C D Em I'm begging You to be my escape.
