Human

Christina Perri

tom:

G   C
(slowly strumming or finger picking)

Sounds better if you use Dsus, Gsus4, etc.


[Verse]
G     D       C
I can hold my breath
G     D       C
I can bite my tongue
G             D
I can stay awake for days
   C
If that’s what you want
G       D      C
Be your number one

G     D      C
I can fake a smile
G     D       C
I can force a laugh
G                  D
I can dance and play the part
   C
If that’s what you ask
G        D     C
Give you all I am

C
I can do it
I can do it
I can do it


[Chorus]
             Em    C
But I’m only human
      G                 D
And I bleed when I fall down
         Em    C
I’m only human
      G                 D
And I crash and I break down
                 Em                 C
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
             G                   D
You build me up and then I fall apart cause I’m only
Em    C    G    D    C
human


[Verse]
G     D       C
I can turn it on,
G    D       C
Be a good machine
G                D
I can hold the weight of worlds
   C
if that's what you need
G       D      C
Be your everything

C
I can do it
I can do it
I’ll get through it


[Chorus]
             Em    C
But I’m only human
      G                 D
And I bleed when I fall down
         Em    C
I’m only human
      G                 D
And I crash and I break down
                 Em                 C
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
             G                   D
You build me up and then I fall apart cause I’m only
Em    C    G    D    C
human

C
I’m only human

I’m only human

Just a little human


[Verse]
G     D       C
I can take so much
G         D    C
Till I’ve had enough


[Chorus]
               Em    C
Cause I’m only human
      G                 D
And I bleed when I fall down
         Em    C
I’m only human
      G                 D
And I crash and I break down
                 Em                 C
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
             G                   D
You build me up and then I fall apart cause I’m only
Em    C    G    D    C
