[Verse]
G                 F#7                      Bm
   Music: it saved me, but it drives me crazy
                    Am7            D        G
'cause it forces my eyes to take a look and see
          F#7            Bm
Got to decide to be happy
                   Am7         D        G
   'cause it don't always come naturally
                     F#7               Bm
Been feeling like a stranger in my body
                 Am7       D               G
I haven't been myself in a while, I'm sorry
         F#7             Bm
Got to decide to be happy
                Am7         D
'cause it don't always come naturally


[Pre-Chorus]
       G            F#7
'cause flowers don't grow without the rain
    Bm             Am7              D
And goodness don't grow without the pain
G            F#7
Flowers don't grow without the rain
Bm             Am7              D
Goodness don't grow without the pain


[Chorus]
G           F#7
   I've been down on my knees
Bm           Am7            D
  Praying in things I don't believe
G          F#7
Hoping that it'll save me
Bm       Am7          D
    So I decide to be happy

G           F#7
   I've been down on my knees
Bm           Am7            D
  Praying in things I don't believe
G          F#7
Hoping that it'll save me
Bm       Am7          D
    So I decide to be happy

[Verse]
G                 F#7                  Bm
   My mind: it can be a scary place at times
                Am7        D             G
So I hide under my bed and close all the blinds
F#7                 Bm        Am7      D
          And I cry, and I cry
G                   F#7                   Bm
      Waste the day away so I turn on the lights
                   Am7       D             G
And I search for a sign or a rhyme or a reason
F#7                Bm                   Am7      D
        Why I'm unsteady as the seasons


[Pre-Chorus]
       G            F#7
'cause flowers don't grow without the rain
    Bm             Am7              D
And goodness don't grow without the pain
G            F#7
Flowers don't grow without the rain
Bm             Am7              D
Goodness don't grow without the pain


[Chorus]
G           F#7
   I've been down on my knees
Bm           Am7            D
  Praying in things I don't believe
G          F#7
Hoping that it'll save me
Bm       Am7          D
    So I decide to be happy

G           F#7
   I've been down on my knees
Bm           Am7            D
  Praying in things I don't believe
G          F#7
Hoping that it'll save me
Bm       Am7          D
    So I decide to be happy

G  F#7  Bm  Am7  D
