Chorus

AI had to lose myDself so C♯mI could love you betBmter

AI had to lose myself, haDd to lose myself soC♯m I could love you better Bm

AHad to lose myseDlf, had Dto lose myself

C♯mSo I could love you bettBmer

AHad to lose myself in loDve

C♯mAnd that’s just the way Bmit is

Repeat Strum pattern for verses

Couldn’t tell me I was love when I needed it

When, all I ever wanted was love.

Should a told me just me because!

I’m worth receiving it

But all I ever wanted was love

There’s is something awkward about the selflessness it takes to

Give love and the good that it makes you!

True love can never really forsake you

But it took a little while just for me to see!

Chorus

I had to lose myself so I could love you better

I had to lose myself, had to lose myself so I could love you better

Had to lose myself, had to lose myself

So I could love you better

Had to lose myself in love

And that’s just the way it is…

I had a paralyzing fear of facing failure

And I couldn’t love you perfectly with fear in my head

So I peerlessly had to face the danger

So I could come back and love you whole instead

All of your soul I said!

So I could make it better

Chorus

I had to lose myself so I could love you better

I had to lose myself, had to lose myself so I could love you better

Had to lose myself, had to lose myself

So I could love you better

Had to lose myself in love

And that’s just the way it is…

B-Sec:

F♯mAnd so it goes that I never meant to hurt you

BmCouldn’t stay but I never meant to desert you

C♯mWhole lot a things I just had to work thru

BmTime to heal and restore myself worth too

F♯mConfrontation of my fears and anxiety

BmCried a whole lot years I suffered quietly

C♯mAnd though it may have taken years I can finally!

F♯mTell you that you were always on my mindA!

Chorus

AI had to lose myDself so C♯mI could make it bettBmer

AI had to lose myself, haDd to lose myself so IC♯m could make it bettBmer

AHad to lose myself, had Dto lose myself

C♯mSo I could make it betteBmr

AHad to lose myself in loDve

C♯mAnd that was just the waBmy!
