verse 1 
D                                                   Bm 
We make patterns out of stars and we whisper little prayers 
                           G                              A 
To be somewhere that we're not and if we're good it will take us there 

D                                                                Bm 
But then the light comes through the dark and our questions fall apart 
                              G                           A 
It's just the beating of our hearts and the still of the midnight air 

Pre-Chorus 
D           Bm                     G 
And I get so overwhelmed till it's hard to tell 
          A 
What I'm thinking 
 
       D 
We get down down down, we feel sorry for ourselves 
        Bm 
We get down down down, we all need somebody's help 
          D 
Let's get loud loud loud, till there's love and nothing else 
           G                      A                     D 
'Cause the more that you give the more that comes back around 

verse 2 
D                                                  Bm 
So we hide away our hurts and put bandaids on our fears 
                       G                              A 
And we lie to all our friends: move along there's no problems here 

D                                                     Bm 
But then the orchestra will start, and the violins appear 
                     G             A 
And a simple little melody has us fighting tears 

Pre-Chorus 
D           Bm                     G 
And I get so overwhelmed till it's hard to tell 
          A 
What I'm thinking 

       D 
We get down down down, we feel sorry for ourselves 
        Bm 
We get down down down, we all need somebody's help 
          D 
Let's get loud loud loud, till there's love and nothing else 
           G                      A                     D 
'Cause the more that you give the more that comes back around 

Bridge 
        Bm                  G 
But the hardest part is the way things are 
        D                    A 
And how quickly fingers will bleed 
        Bm                      G 
And the grace we need is not in magazines, 
          D                          A 
It's just space, in between, when we breathe 
 
     D 
I am down down down, I feel sorry for myself 
          Bm 
And I get down down down, and I need somebody's help 
           D 
Let's get loud loud loud, till there's love and nothing else 
           G                      A 
'Cause the more that we give, the more that comes back... 
D 
Down down down, we feel sorry for ourselves 
       Bm 
We're down down down, we all need somebody's help 
           D 
Let's get loud loud loud, till there's love and nothing else 
           G                      A                    D 
'Cause the more that you give the more that comes back around 
           G                      A                    Bm 
'Cause the more that you give the more that comes back around 
           G                      A                    D 
'Cause the more that you give the more that comes back around
