[Intro]
 
Em D Bm C
Em D Bm C
 
 
[Verse]
 
           Em           D            Bm    C
I've spent more than my share on temptation
          Em      D       Bm    C
Trying to cool my swollen tongue
  Em       D                Bm        C
I gorged myself on all that free good will
      Em       D      Bm
And I left the others none
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                 C             D
What I wear like church clothes,
Em
You wear just like jewelry
        C                 D
All the simple things you revel in,
Em
They just suffocate me
            C       D
And I don't know anymore,
                   Em
Wish someone would tell me who I should be
        Am     G/B       C       D
Because I'm ready now to try anything
 
 
[Interlude]
 
Em D Bm C
Em D Bm C
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
    Em         D     Bm          C
I'm dazzled by glamor and camera angles,
    Em        D          Bm    C
The drama and swagger of fools
       Em           D             Bm          C
I sacrificed beauty once to chase after their parade
             Em            D                Bm
And spent my morning after crawling back to you
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
                 C             D
What I wear like church clothes,
Em
You wear just like jewelry
        C                 D
All the simple things you revel in,
Em
They just suffocate me
            C       D
And I don't know anymore,
                   Em
Wish someone would tell me who I should be
        Am     G/B       C       D
Because I'm ready now to try anything
 
 
[Bridge]
 
G Bm
          C
I want to be
              D
I want to be
             G          Bm
I want to be brand new,
          C
I want to trade in these wings
                               D
Mine don't work like yours do
             G          Bm
I want to be brand new,
          C
I want to trade in these wings
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
                 C             D
What I wear like church clothes,
Em
You wear just like jewelry
        C                 D
All the simple things you revel in,
Em
They just suffocate me
            C       D
And I don't know anymore,
                   Em
Wish someone would tell me who I should be
        Am     G/B       C       D
Because I'm ready now to try anything
  Am      G/B    C       D
I'm ready low to try anything
  Am G/B      C       D
I'm  so ready to slow down
