Em
Look  me  in  the  eyes
                   D
Tell  me  how  to  find  my  way  through
                                   C
I  know  there's  more  to  being  confident
               C
Than  finding  out  how  to  talk  to  you

Em
But  it's  not  working  out  again
                      D
And  I  keep  over-analyzing  what  I  said
               C
I'm  not  the  person  you'd  expect  of  me  yet;


[Pre chorus]
C
I  haven't  earned  it,  no
D
I  haven't  shown  you  yet
     C                           D
No,  I  haven't  shown  you  yet


[Chorus]
Em
Maybe  this  is  history
             D
Ready  to  repeat  again
C
Maybe  this  is  what  I  need
    Em                           D              C
To  keep  me  from  getting  in  over  my  head


[Verse]
Em
So  don't  act  so  surprised
         D
No  I'm  not  perfect
                       C
I'll  keep  it  all  inside,  'Cause  you're  so  worth  the  time
Em
Consider  this  the  reason  that  I'll  stay
         D          C
For  whatever  you  throw  my  way
Em
Yet  we're  still  breaking  in
                  D            C
The  feeling  of  letting  it  out
                      Em
So  I'll  retain  my  balance  between
         D                           C
Letting  go  and  just  running  my  mouth


[Chorus]
Em
Maybe  this  is  history
             D
Ready  to  repeat  again
C
Maybe  this  is  what  I  need
    Em                           D              C
To  keep  me  from  getting  in  over  my  head
Em
Well  baby  it's  just  all  a  game
D                         C
And  I've  folded  on  a  winning  hand
Em
Maybe  this  is  just  my  way
            D                    C
Of  waking  up  to  begin  again


[Bridge]
Em
I  know  it's  not  that  wonderful
C                            D
To  be  your  best  on  your  own
     Em                                                      C           D
But  right  now  I  don't, I  don't  know  where  else  I'd  rather  go
Em
She  knows  not  what  this  picture  holds
C                                  D
Or  who  she's  fated  to  sleep  alone
     Em
But  maybe  this  is  right
                 C                        D
And  it's  just  not  the  time  yet  to  say  hello
Em                         C                     D
No,  it's  just  not  the  time  yet  to  say  hello.
Em
So  once  it's  right  to  say  you  know
              C                          D
That  you're  everything  but  on  your  own
       Em
Maybe  then  we'll  change  the  face
        C                       D
Of  wherever  we're  meant  to  go


[Chorus]
Em
Maybe  this  is  history
             D
Ready  to  repeat  again
C
Maybe  this  is  what  I  need
    Em                           D              C
To  keep  me  from  getting  in  over  my  head
Em
Well  baby  it's  just  all  a  game
D                         C
And  I've  folded  on  a  winning  hand
Em
Maybe  this  is  just  my  way
            D                    C
Of  waking  up  to  begin  again,
C
To  begin  again
