I've given up, I'm giving up slowly I'm blending in so you won't even know [F#m] me.
Apart [A] from this world that shares my [D] fate.
[A] This one [B] last fight you [D] mentioned Is my one last shot at [F#m] redemption.
Cause I know [A] to live you must give your [D] life away.
[F#m] And I've been [D] housing all this doubt [A] And it's [E] flooding.
[F#m] I've been locked inside [D] that house [A] All the while you hold [E] the key.
And I've [F#m] been [D] dying to get out And [A] that might be the [E] destiny.

I've given up, I'm doing this alone now I've failed and I'm ready to be [F#] shown how.
You sold [E] me the way and now I'm [B] trying [C#m] to [D] get there.
[A] And this life sentence that I'm serving I admit that I'm every bit [F#m] deserving.
But the [E] beauty of grace is that it makes life [D] not fair.
[F#] Cause I've been housing all [D] this [A] doubt And it's [E] flooding.
[F#m] I've been locked inside [D] that house [A] All the while you hold [E] the key.
