[Intro] D  B   
 
B                            E
Don't dress it up but don't beat around the bush
B                               E
And don't cover it up but don't push it underground
B                                  
And don't keep it inside and don't edit and redact
B
And no dumbing it down
B
And don't fake it, just
D             B           
B                    E
And I can handle the truth
B                    E
I can cope with whatever you're holding back

No need to sugar coat

( D  E )   

Em            Am
I know how to mend
      D    B7/D#          Em
I can rise high above the ashes
          Am
I'll re-invent
       C   F#
I will re-emerge
  B5
Reborn
