D5  G  C


[Verse 1]

D5                G                            C
   I ain't lonely, but I spend a lot of time alone
D5                       G                            C
   More than I'd like to, but I'm okay with staying home
F             C                      G
   My how the last few months have changed
F               C                    G
   I'm smiling more despite the pain


[Chorus 1]

C               G
   I breathe in, I breathe out
Am                                     F
   Got friends to call who let me talk about
C                     G
   What ain't working, what's still hurtin'
Am                               F        C
   All the things I feel like cussin' out
D5                 Em
   Now and then I let it go
  F                 C
I ride the waves I can't control
    D5              G                C
I'm learnin' how to build a better boat


[Verse 2]

D5                G                             C
   I hate waitin', ain't no patience in these hands
D5                     G                                 C
   I'm not complainin', sometimes it's hard to change a man
F                C                G
   I think I'm stronger than I was
F         C               G
   I let God do what he does


[Chorus 2]

C               G
   I breathe in, I breathe out
Am                                     F
   Got friends to call who let me talk about
C                     G
   What ain't working, what's still hurtin'
Am                               F        C
   All the things I feel like cussin' out
D5                 Em
   Now and then I let it go
  F                 C
I ride the waves I can't control
    D5              G                C
I'm learnin' how to build a better boat
D5  G


[Chorus 3]

C               G
   I breathe in, I breathe out
Am                                     F
   Got friends to call who let me talk about
C                     G
   What ain't working, what's still hurtin'
Am                               F        C
   All the things I feel like cussin' out
D5                 Em
   Now and then I let it go
  F                 C
I ride the waves I can't control
D5                 Em
   If it's working I don't know
     F                     C
When I get done, the thing may not float
       D5               G                C
But I'm learnin' how to build a better boat
D5  G  C
