G                                                              Em
You can be amazing, you can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug
                                                                  C
You can be the outcast, or be the backlash of somebody’s lack of love
    D                     G
Or you can start speaking up
 
                                                                               Em
Nothing’s gonna hurt you the way that words do, when they settle ‘neath your skin
                                                          C
Kept on the inside and no sunlight, sometimes the shadow wins
       D
But I wonder what would happen if you
 
 G                     Em                       C           D                     G
Say what you wanna say, and let the words fall out, honestly I wanna see you be brave
                          Em                       C           D                     G
With what you want to say, and let the words fall out, honestly I wanna see you be brave
                      C                     Em                   D                     G
I just wanna see you, I just wanna see you, I just wanna see you, I wanna see you be brave
                      C                     Em                   D
I just wanna see you, I just wanna see you, I just wanna see you, I wanna see you be brave
 
G                                                              Em
Everybody’s been there, everybody’s been stared down by the enemy
                                                                      C
Fallen for the fear, and done some disappearing, bow down to the mighty
          D                        G
Don’t run, just stop holding your tongue
 
                                               Em
Maybe there’s a way out of the cage where you live
                                              C          D
Maybe one of these days you can let the light in, show me how big your brave is
 
 G                     Em                       C           D                     G
Say what you wanna say, and let the words fall out, honestly I wanna see you be brave
                          Em                       C           D                     Em
With what you want to say, and let the words fall out, honestly I wanna see you be brave
 
                G                 C
And since your history of silence, won’t do you any good, did you think it would
Em                G                  D
Let your words be anything but empty, why don’t you tell them the truth
 
                                                                                  G
Say what you wanna say, and let the words fall out, honestly I wanna see you be brave
                          Em                       C           D                     G
With what you want to say, and let the words fall out, honestly I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you, I just wanna see you, I just wanna see you, I wanna see you be brave
                      C                     Em                   D             G
