[Intro]
G C G Dsus4
[Verse]
G C
I gave a little too much
G Dsus4
Maybe I should've given up on you
G C
But I couldn't let go
G Dsus4
You reminded me too much of the girl I used to know
G C
Who couldn't recognize her reflection
G Dsus4
Who would shutter at the thought of confession
G C
She was you at her lowest
G Dsus4
She could've had so much more but she didn't know it
[Chorus]
G C
But if you knew what she knows now
G Dsus4
No, if you knew what she knows now
G C
You'd get up and get out and be free
G Dsus4
And you'd never look back at what you thought was safety
G C
All I wanted was for you to know
G Dsus4
That what seems so far is so close
G C
Because what I would've given
G Dsus4
No, what I would've given to have known it was safe to come home
[Verse]
G C
This was more than a crush
G Dsus4
This was a chance to fix what I messed up
G C
To skip all the years of self-hate
G Dsus4
To prove that I wasn't too late
G C
But that was wrong of me
G Dsus4
Your life isn't a chance to rewrite my story
G C
So to the girl I used to know
G Dsus4
The time you took was never too slow
[Chorus]
G C
Because if you knew what I know now
G Dsus4
No, if you knew what I know now
G C
You'd get up and get out and come with me
G Dsus4
And you'd never look back at what you thought was safety
G C
All I wanted was for you to know
G Dsus4
That what seems so far is so close
G C
Because what I would've given
G Dsus4
No, what I would've given to have known it was safe to come home
[Outro]
G C
If I knew what I know now
G Dsus4
No, if I knew what I know now
G C
I'd know it's okay to let go
G Dsus4 G C G Dsus4 D G
And it's always safe to come home
