B    Ebm/Bb  G#m    F# 
I was afraid to be me 
 
     E         F#     E 
Be anyone you want to be 
 
              F# 
Be anyone you want to be 
 
B     Ebm/Bb     G#m   F# 
I don't blame my week 
 
    E             F#          E 
For my not being able to speak 
 
        F#                      B 
Clearly about things I've said before 
 
           G#m      E                  B               F# 
And if it's light outside night will fall, night will fall 
 
                G#m  E             B              F#   E  Ebm/Bb  E      B  
And if it's li-i-i-i-i-i-i-fe it resolves, it reso-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-lves 
 
B F# C#m E B 
 
B               F#     C#m   E      B 
Everywhere you are in a maze is a lie 
 
B               F#     C#m   E      B 
 
B               F#      C#m       E               B 
Anywhere you are on a page you still go to the right 
 
B               F#      C#m  E       B 
 
B              F#          C#m            E            B 
Anytime there's no ground below you you're in the sky 
 
B               F#      C#m  E        B 
 
B          F#   C#m         E              B 
Anytime you're afraid it's gonna be alright 
 
       F#         C#m 
It's gonna be alright 
 
B      Ebm/Bb    G#m     F#   E 
I was a flame in the night 
 
             F#             E 
I heard what I wanted to hear 
 
                    F# 
And the moment I disappeared 
 
B        Ebm/Bb    G#m     F#    
I grew the size of all outside 
 
           E                F#             B 
Cuz I-I-I      I became one with the night 
 
              G#m   E            B             F# 
And if it's re-e-e-a-al it's not all, it's not all, baby 
 
              Ebm/Bb        E      B       F#               E             Ebm/Bb   E  B 
There's a lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-t in what appears not to be there at all 
 
    Ebm/Bb   G#m         E       F#              B     F#   E 
And you can function as someone besides who you are
