[Intro]
Em D G x2
[Verse 1]
Em D G
I'm not a stranger to the dark
C Em
Hide away, they say
D
'Cause we don't want your broken parts
Em D G
I've learned to be ashamed of all my scars
C Em
Run away, they say
D
No one will love you as you are
[Pre-Chorus]
C D Em
But I won't let them break me down to dust
D G
I know that there's a place for us
D
For we are glorious
[Chorus]
G
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
Em
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out
C
I am brave, I am bruised
D
I am who I'm meant to be, this is me
G
Look out 'cause here I come
Em
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
C
I'm not scared to be seen
D
I make no apologies, this is me
[Post-Chorus]
G
Oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Em
Oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
C D
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Em D G
Another round of bullets hits my skin
C Em D
Well, fire away 'cause today, I won't let the shame sink in
Em D G
We are bursting through the barricades
C Em
And reach above the sun (we are warriors)
D
Yeah, that's what we'll become
[Pre-Chorus]
C D Em
Won't let them break me down to dust
D G
I know that there's a place for us
D
For we are glorious
[Chorus]
G
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
Em
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out
C
I am brave, I am bruised
D
I am who I'm meant to be, this is me
G
Look out 'cause here I come
Em
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
C
I'm not scared to be seen
D
I make no apologies, this is me
[Post-Chorus]
G
Oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Em
Oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
C D
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
This is me
[Bridge]
G Em
And I know that I deserve your love
C D
There's nothing I'm not worthy of
G
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
Em
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out
C
This is brave, This is bruised
D
This is who I'm meant to be, this is me
[Chorus]
G
Look out 'cause here I come (look out 'cause here I come)
Em
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum (marching on, marching, marching on)
C
I'm not scared to be seen
D
I make no apologies, this is me
[Outro]
G
(Nobody's gonna cut me down)
Em
(Gonna send a flood to drown them out)
C
I'm gonna send a flood
(oh-oh-oh)
D
Gonna drown them out
(oh-oh)
