D A G Em
So much beauty in life, Shining on the outside, Empty on the inside
D A G
I get lost sometimes, Blinded by the flashing lights
Em
Distractions always in my eyes
D F# B
So i'm following the sound, the sound of my heart
Em
Beating
{Chorus}
D A
You can take it all away
I don't need it
G Em
Underneath, i'll still be the same
D A
You can take it all away
G
I don't need it, it's not me
A# Em
You can take it all, take it all away
G
I'll still be the same
D A
Are you hiding still?
G
Don't you want to love yourself?
Em
Don't you know that someone will?
D A
Time can turn it around
G
Leave it all and strip it down
Em
That's the only way to find it out
D F# B
Are you following the sound, the sound of your heart?
Em
Beating
{Chorus}
F G
Coming in with nothing, leaving with the same
C Em
It's all inside
F G
Coming in with nothing, the only thing that saves
C Em
Is here inside
{Chorus}
