Intro 1
(D major) (B minor) (D major) (G major) (D major) (Asus4)
Softly, (D major)
Verse 1
(D major) softly,
blow the candle out (B minor)
And show me what it's all about (D major) (G major)
Delicately bruise me (D major) on the edge of
a knife every day, day, day
Come (B minor) and save me
and show me a better way (D major)
Right (G major) now it's so scary
Suf (D major) fering (G minor) in silence
never did (D major) me any good
It's a drain in waste (C major)
(Dsus4) and I will not for (D major) get (E minor) that sound
The day you killed my but (D major) terflies
and sent them away to heav (G major) en
Watch (D major) ing as they fluttered
away into the (G major) dark
Broken (D major) dreams they melted
away into the (G major) earth
Break (D major) ing me you drifted
away into (F sharp minor) my (G major) soul
And I've (D major) tried so hard (B minor)
To be good (G major) for you (D major)
But you (G major) never knew
What I (D major) had to do (F sharp minor)
(D major) To feel safe (E minor) from you
all (G major) these years (D major)
Building a (B minor) shield over my (G major) heart
Instead of (D major) feeling free (A major) (D major)
Buildin' (B minor) a shield right from the (G major) start
Instead of (D major) bein' me (A major) (G major) (D major) (E minor) (D major)
Suf (G minor) fering in silence
never did (D major) me any good
It's a draining waste (E minor)
(Dsus4) and I will not for (D major) get (E minor) that sound
The day it killed my butterflies (D major)
and sent them away to heav (G major) en
Watch (D major) ing as they fluttered
away into the (G major) dark
Broken (D major) dreams they mounted
away into the (G major) earth
Break (D major) ing me you drifted
away into my (G major) soul
And I've (D major) tried so hard (B minor)
To be good (G major) for you (D major)
But you never (G major) knew
What I (D major) had to do (F sharp minor)
(D major) To feel safe (A major) from (E minor) you
All (G major) these years (E minor) (D major)
Building a (B minor) shield
Over my (G major) home,
(A major) (G major) instead of (D major) feeling free (A major) (D major)
Building a (B minor) shield,
right from the (G major) storm
Instead of (D major) being me
Outro 1
