Capo on 3rd Fret
[Verse 1]
Em C N.C.
I remember the minute
Em C
It was like a switch was flipped
Em C
I was just a kid who grew up strong enough
D
To pick this armor up
Em C Em
And suddenly it fit
C Em C
God, that was so long ago, long ago, long ago...
Em C D
I was little, I was weak, perfectly naive
Em C
And I grew up too quick
[Refrain]
Am G
Now you won't see all that I have to lose
D Em C
And all I've lost in the fight to protect it
Am G
I won't let you in I swore never again
C D Em C
I can't afford, no, I refuse to be rejected
[Verse 2]
D Em C
I want to break these bones 'til they're better
C Em C
I want to break them right and feel alive
You were wrong, you were wrong, you were wrong
D C
My healing needed more than time
Em C Em D
When I see fragile things, helpless things, broken things
Em
I see the familiar
D
I was little, I was weak, I was perfect too
C
Now I'm a broken mirror
[Refrain]
Am G
But I can't let you see all that I have to lose
D Em C
All I've lost in the fight to protect it
Am Bm
I can't let you in- I swore never again
D Em C
I can't afford to let myself be blindsided
[Verse 3]
Am G
I'm standing guard, I'm falling apart
D Em C
And all I want is to trust you
Am G
Show me how to lay my sword down
D Em C
For long enough to let you through
G
Here I am, pry me open
G C
What do you want to know?
D Em
I'm just a kid who grew up scared enough
D
To hold the door shut
Em C
And bury my innocence
G Em
But here's a map, here's a shovel
C Em
Here's my achilles' heel
[Bridge]
C D Em D Em C
I'm all in, palms out, I'm at your mercy now and I'm ready to begin
D Em D Em C D C
I am strong, I am strong, I am strong enough to let you i-----n
[Verse 4]
Am Bm G
I'll shake the ground with a-a-ll my might
D Em C
I will pull my whole heart up to the surface
Am Bm
For the innocent, for the vulnerable
D Em C
I'll show up on the front lines with a purpose
Am G
And I'll give all I have, I'll give my blood, I'll give my sweat-
D Em C
An ocean of tears will spill for what is broken
Am Bm G
I'm shattered porcelain, glued back together again
D Em C D
Invincible like I've never be---en
