Verse 1
         G                          F
Memory fails me, names and faces blur
              C            G
There is only after, or before
              G
Am I so different? Have I changed?
          F
I do not recognise my face
            C
The scar fades but pulls inside
 G
Tugging at me all the time
  G                        F
Chewing on a feeling and spitting it out
   C                 G
Crouched in a ball gown
  G                 F
Anxious and ashamed
     C                      G
The vague humiliations of faith


Chorus
               G
I do not find worthiness in virtue
              F
I no longer try to be good
           C
It didn't keep me safe
          G
Like you told me that it would
              G
So come on, tear me wide open
   F
A terrible gift
          C
Let the chorus console me
 G
Sympathy magic


Verse 2
C/E                                 D
    And light coming in the window just so
                     C
    And the wind through my fingers
                      Am7
    The only God that  I  know
                    C/E                        D
    And it does not want me on my knees to believe
               C
    Head high,    arms wide
            Am7
    Aching, aching, aching


Chorus
      G  F
And ali--ive
      C  G
And ali--ive
            G
So I don't have to be worthy
              F
I no longer try to be good
           C
It didn't keep me safe
          G
Like you told me that it would
              G
So come on, tear me wide open
          F
'Til I'm losing my mind
        C
'Til I cannot contain it
          G
La-la la-la, da-da-da


Bridge
        G
So come on, come on, I can take it
        F
Give me everything you got
     C                     G
What else? What else? What else? What else?
        G
So come on, come on, I can take it
        F
Give me everything you got
     C                     G
What else? What else? What else?

     Come on
