[Intro]

G Am F G (x2)

[Verse 1]
G                 Am
I was drowning in water
                F             G
Flailing in the dark, all alone
                   Am
Then you whispered softly
          F                        G
Open your eyes, the darkness is home

[Chorus]
                     Em   C
I've been covered in shame
                   G
And all the pain I sustained
          Em
Now I can breathe as if
    C               G
I'm taking my first breath
      Em     C     G
I see beauty in the mess
      Em     C     G
I see beauty in the mess

[Verse 2]
G        Am
I saw my fears
             F                    G
The moment I learned them, all so clear
           Am
I began to unwind
            F                    G
The unworthiness, I was hiding behind

[Chorus]
                     Em   C
I've been covered in shame
                   G
And all the pain I sustained
          Em
Now I can breathe as if
    C               G
I'm taking my first breath
      Em     C     G
I see beauty in the mess
      Em     C     G
I see beauty in the mess

[Bridge]
D                    Em
All along you've held me
    C               D
And love has always been
             Em
Everywhere I go
    C            D
And everything I am

[Chorus] (up a whole step)
                     F#m  D
I've been covered in shame
                   A
And all the pain I sustained
          F#m
Now I can breathe as if
    D               A
I'm taking my first breath
      F#m    D     A
I see beauty in the mess
      F#m    D     A
I see beauty in the mess
