[Intro]
Bb Dm C Dm Am

[Verse 1]
F                        Dm                                         Gm
I’m gonna let you in on a secret, I’m so afraid
C                                         Dm                     F
Of letting my skeletons out, so I bottle them in
Dm                                         Am
But I know it’s gonna get out in the worst way, so I gave in
C                                         Dm                     F
Now I’m gonna be an open book for you to read

[Chorus 1]
Dm                      Bb                                         Am
The longer I stay numb, the longer I don’t have to think much
C                                         Dm                                         F
I never have to think about my father and how he walked out on us
Dm                                                             Bb
How I barely know my mother, for that I’m ashamed
C                     Dm                     Am                     F
Afraid of what they think of me, so I stay away

[Pre-Chorus]
Bb                                         Gm
Let’s make a pact right here, right now

[Chorus 2]
C                     Dm                     F
You keep your hopes up that I can change
C                                         Dm                     F
Well I stay honest, you do the same
Bb                                                             F
I’ll keep my purpose, you keep your faith
C                                         Dm
That we can get through this
Am
These tougher days
F                     Bb
These tougher days

Dm Bb C Dm F

[Verse 2]
Am                                         Bb
I always felt that you won’t understand
C
So I bled out quietly
Dm
The medicine held my hand
Am
And made me feel like I can stand up

Bb
The toll it’s taking on my chest now
C
Bridges burning and chances left out
Dm
List of things that I regret now
Am
Build up this resentment

[Chorus 1]
Gm                                                             Dm
The longer I stay numb, the longer I don’t have to think much

Never have to think about my father and how he walked out on us
Dm                                                             Bb
How I barely know my mother, for that I’m ashamed
C                     Dm                     Am
Afraid of what they think of me, so I stay away

[Chorus 2]
F                                         Bb
You keep your hopes up that I can change
C                     Dm                     Am
Well I stay honest, you do the same

I’ll keep my purpose, you keep your faith

That we can get through this
