G Em
[Verse 1]
G
Shame is a river
Gm Em
When I cross its waters
G
I always sink
G Em G
G
Hope's on the other side
C G Em
But I got guilt like bricks to my feet
[Chorus]
G
I was fifteen when I had my first drink
Em
Numb on the sofa across from a shrink
G Em
Keeping my mouth shut and grinding my teeth
G
I got away as far as I could
C Em
But that didn't' do me any good
G Em
This hurricane's within me
[Verse 2]
G
Love is a sunrise
Em
Where's the light to
G
Eclipse my grief
G
Grace speaks in silence
C G C
I've been quiet but only hear my own screams
[Chorus]
G
I was fifteen when I had my first drink
Em
Numb on the sofa across from a shrink
G Em
Keeping my mouth shut and grinding my teeth
G
I got away as far as I could
C Em
But that didn't' do me any good
G
This hurricane's within me
G
I'm a force of nature
G
Keep your saviors
C
There's no prayer
G C
See you reconcile me
G
Paint me a picture
C
One where I have
G C
Finally cried myself clean
G
Show me a picture
C
One where I am
G C
Forgiven and free
