Half Step Down

Intro

Repeat these two note patterns throughout intro and verse

Pretty mess, with a pretty voice

Humming in my ear, drowning out the world's noise

 such a pretty one, such a mixed up one

 I once was lost, then I was found

 I want to make things better the second time around

 What a precious sound, hearing the words second time around

And how will you understand, as if I would back then

How will they understand that's who I was not who I am

And I'm not a perfect soul, and I'll fall again I know, but oh oh

 I must pull myself together

 This is a brand new day

Pull myself away from my mistakes

Pull myself together

 It's time to let the waves, just take me, pull me away

 And I know for you this must be hard

 Giving me a second start

 And I know I'm a little bit late, but please don't hate, hate me

 Don't hate, hate me

Chain of lies

 Chain of events

 The keys are in your reach, but not in your hands

 You don't have to be a quote good unquote person to be let free

And how will you understand, as if I would back then

How will they understand that's who I was not who I am

And I'm not a perfect soul, and I'll fall again I know, but oh oh

Chorus

Chorus

 The grace you know you’re yearning for

 is right here where you’re at
