Intro: E A2 


verse 1 

           A2 
I know I'm not 
                   E 
Who you want me to be 
                   B 
I know I'd let you down 
                E 
if you just let me 
            A2 
With all my cards 
            E 
Close to my chest 
           B 
I've got a face 
              E 
Just like the rest 


              A2              E 
And here's my heart laid open wide 
           A2              E 
Take it or leave it, I'm alright 
               A2                  C#m 
Cuz I found my worth in only one's eyes 
            B                 E 
So I lay my head down fine at night 

verse 2 

              A2 
I've grown so tired 
             E 
Of measuring up 
                  B 
And those games I play 
           E 
Are never enough 
                 A2 
So here’s all my cards 
           E 
I lay them out 
                B 
Can we learn to love 
               E 
To bring walls down 


              A2              E 
And here's my heart laid open wide 
           A2              E 
Take it or leave it, I'm alright 
               A2                  C#m 
Cuz I found my worth in only one's eyes 
            B                 E 
So I lay my head down fine at night 


Bridge 

       E        A2 
Can we learn to love?  


              A2              E 
And here's my heart laid open wide 
           A2              E 
Take it or leave it, I'm alright 
               A2                  C#m 
Cuz I found my worth in only one's eyes 
            B                 E 
So I lay my head down fine at night 

              A2              E 
And here's my heart laid open wide 
           A2              E 
Take it or leave it, I'm alright 
               A2                  C#m 
Cuz I found my worth in only one's eyes 
            B                 E 
So I lay my head down fine at night
