Intro: C#m  A  E  B (2x) 

C#m         A                E        
I?ve never been the kind to hold back, 
B            C#m   A         E             B 
Though I?ve never felt the burden before, 
C#m             A                   E       
And all these years I begged for vengeance, 
     B    C#m        A       E   B 
Was only left with wanting more, 


    A  E 
But I can?t be whole, 
 B 
'til I let all this anger go, 
 A                 E                  B 
The silent strain I?ve carried long enough. 


    E                B 
And I can?t be with you, 
        C#m  F#m 
I don?t even want to, 
        A                     B 
I just wish your ghosts were gone, 
       E             B 
Cause I?m ready to love, 
            F#m    A     
I?ve been guarded long enough. 


C#m A E B (2x) 


E                C#m   B 
It?s taken a lot to forgive you, 
E        F#m         E  B 
Oh it?s taken me so long, 
E              C#m    B 
I tried in vain to forget you, 
      F#m        E  B 
Oh I tried everything, 


    A   E 
But I won?t be free,  
 B 
'til I?ve made peace with never knowing, 
 A                   E                B 
What went wrong and was the fault in me. 


    E                B 
And I can?t be with you, 
        C#m  F#m 
I don?t even want to, 
        A                     B 
I just wish your ghosts were gone, 
       E            B 
Cause I?m ready to love, 
            F#m    A 
I?ve been guarded long enough. 


C#m  A  E  B (2x) 

            C#m    A     E   B 
I?ve been guarded long enough, 
            C#m    A     E   B 
I?ve been guarded long enough, 
            C#m    A     E        B 
I?ve been guarded long enough to know, 
    C#m A       E B 
I?m ready, I?m ready, 
    C#m A       E B 
I?m ready, I?m ready, 
    C#m A       E B 
I?m ready, I?m ready, 
    C#m A       E B   E 
I?m ready, I?m ready now.
