Em

Verse

EmMy friends say I've got to stay behCind,'cause they've seen this kiGnd,

 Just like they aB7ll told me so.

EmI'll begin to piece it all in oCne, just another song,

 Just another pipB7e dream for the child who hung his heEmad.

Chorus

EmIt was not my faulCt, it was not my daGy,

 But it made me strB7ong, it made me wait for loEmve.

 And I found so mucCh, and I've paid my deGbts,

 For the kindness B7I was shown to use as my oEmwn. B7

Verse

EmAll my tears and comforts led the waCy, in a final plaGy,

 That had sB7cenes of heroes making up for loEmss.

And his story cost, paper melted down.

Made of blankets for the child who ran away.

Chorus

Bridge

EmSip the same depressing fuCel

 Make and break your every Grule.

 And if the laughter is allB7 night,

 At least it's helping me to Emwrite.

 When everything is overboaCrd

 The perfect crew you can't affoGrd,

 There is no truth without unB7just

 And in the music I could truEmst.

Chorus

It was not my fault, it was not my day,

Oh, but it made me strong, it made me wait for love.

And I found so much, and I've paid my debts,

For the kindness I was shown to use as my own.
