To Be Loved

[G]I built a house for a [Em7/B]love to grow

[D]I was so young [Em]that it was hard to know

[C]I’m as lost now as I [G/B]was back then

[Am7]Always make a mess of [C/D]everything

[G]It’s about time that I [Em7/B]face myself

[D]All I do is [Em]bleed into someone else

[C]Painting walls with all my [G/B]secret tears

[Am7]Filling rooms with all my [C/D]hopes and fears

 

But [G]oh my, [D/F#]oh [Em]my

[D]I’ll never learn if [C]I never leap

[G/B]I’ll always [Am7]yearn if I never [C/D]speak

 

[G]To be loved and [Bm7]love at the [C]highest count

[D]Means to [Em]lose all the [Em7/D]things I can’t [C]live without

[D]I’ll be the [Em]one to catch myself this time

[C]Trying to learn to lean [G/B]into it all

[Am7]Ain’t it funny how the [C/D]mighty fall

[G]Looking back I don’t reg[Em7/D]ret a thing

[D]Yeah I took some bad [Em]turns that I am owning

[C]I’ll stand still and let the [G/B]storm pass by

[Am7]Keep my heart safe til the [C/D]time feels right

 

But [G]oh my, [D/F#]oh [Em]my

[D]I’ll never learn if [C]I never leap

[G/B]I’ll always [Am7]yearn if I never [C/D]speak
