Intro Am F C G
 
Am F
I'm broken, tell you I'm fine
C
But you wouldn't believe me
G
If you knew the things that crossed my mind
Am F
I'm hurting but I show no sign
C
Because I'm afraid to give in
G
Break down, and waste your time
 
(Two, three)
 
Am
Now I'm begging you
F
To come and pull me out of the fire
C
Come and save me
G
Like you did when we were young
Am
Oh please come bring me out
F
From my lowest, take me higher
C G
Can you see me through the ashes and the smoke?
 
Am F
I'm lonely, it's been so long
C G
Since I felt love, to smile, felt strong
Am
And what can I do?
F
When I'm not friends with my reflection
C G
When I don't understand affection like you do
 
(Two, three)
Am
Now I'm begging you
F
To come and pull me out of the fire
C
Come and save me
G
Like you did when we were young
Am
Oh please come bring me out
F
From my lowest, take me higher
C G
Can you see me through the ashes and the smoke?
 
Am
You say that you'll help me
 
You tell me I'm worth it
F
But I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it
C
But it's easy for you
 
'Cause you know your perfect
G
And I need your hand but I don't want to burn it
 
Am
There's blood on the counter, tears on the pages
F
While I write you a letter then I quickly erase it
C
I'm shatter, I'm beat down, I'm broken
G
Weak now
 
Am
So I'm begging you
F
To come and pull me out the fire
C G
Come quickly, 'cause I'm burning up inside
 
Am
Oh please just bring me up
F
From my lowest take me higher
C G
Can you see me through the ashes and the smoke?
 
Am F
Pull me out
C
Pull me out
G
Pull me out
 
Final Am F C G
