[Intro]
Eb
 
 
[Verse 1]
Bb                    Cm
  Losing balance as I weigh out
          Eb
my options  It's an everyday
               Bb
morning routine  Through every
Cm       Eb Bb
hazy memory  At any second
you could recap the climax
F
  It’s not as vivid as it used to
  Gm
be  Through every hazy memory
 
 
[Refrain 1]
               Eb
The walls were built so high
    Gm                  F
But couldn't keep their words
                Eb
out The shelter they provide
Gm          F
Only houses self doubt
 
 
[Chorus 1]
Bb      F              Eb
  I'm reclaiming my composure
            Gm
Lately I’ll bend smile
       Dm        Eb
and pretend to be  stable
Bb           F             Eb
  I’ve been avoiding conversation
                Gm
But lately I’ll bend smile
       Dm        Eb      Bb F
and pretend to be  stable
 
 
[Verse 2]
Bb
  Life is unfolding like
    Cm
the plot of a movie
Eb
  Not the version that
             Bb
everyone sees  My dreams
     Cm              Eb
laid out in front of me
                Bb F
I never told anyone but
                  Gm
the truth is I see  The
shadow hanging over me
 
 
[Refrain 2]
               Eb
The walls were built so high
    Gm                  F
But couldn't keep their words
                Eb
out The shelter they provide
Gm          F
Only houses self doubt
 
 
[Chorus 2]
Bb      F              Eb
  I'm reclaiming my composure
            Gm
Lately I’ll bend smile
       Dm        Eb
and pretend to be  stable
Bb           F             Eb
  I’ve been avoiding conversation
                Gm
But lately I’ll bend smile
       Dm        Eb
and pretend to be  stable

[Refrain 3]
               Eb
The walls were built so high
    Gm                  F
But couldn't keep their words
                Eb
out The shelter they provide
Gm          F
Only houses self doubt
 
 
[Chorus 3]
Bb      F              Eb
  I'm reclaiming my composure
            Gm
Lately I’ll bend smile
       Dm        Eb
and pretend to be  stable
Bb           F             Eb
  I’ve been avoiding conversation
                Gm

and pretend to be  stable
