[Verse 1]
    A              F#m
Its darkest before dawn
     D          E
So I gotta keep goin on
         A                   F#m
I know tomorrow the sun will rise
        D
But its hard to stay strong,
     E
this time

[Chorus]
         D           E
I get so lost in the journey
     F#m           E        D
I forget what I’m doing it for
        E                D
But you tell me that its easy
                F#m
You said “we’ve talked
       E     D
about this before
   E                D
Be patient with the process
       F#m      A            D
And go see your real friends more
     E                   D
Just do what’ll make you happy
             Esus E              A

[Verse 2]
    A           F#m
I’m stuck in my head
D            E
Paralyzed by what comes next
    A               F#m
So afraid to get it wrong
      D               E
But I knew what to do all along

[Bridge]
D                E
I was so frantic grasping for help
          F#m        E     D
When your friendship would suffice
D              E
My mind turned against itself
         F#m      E          D
When the simplest answer was right

[Chorus]
   E                D
Be patient with the process
       F#m      A            D
And go see your real friends more
     E                   D
Just do what’ll make you happy
             Esus E              A
