G
Shame is a river
       Gm              Em
When I cross its waters
        G
I always sink
G  Em  G
G
Hope's on the other side
    C               G                 Em
But I got guilt like bricks to my feet

G
I was fifteen when I had my first drink
Em
Numb on the sofa across from a shrink
G                                     Em
Keeping my mouth shut and grinding my teeth
G
I got away as far as I could
C                       Em
But that didn't' do me any good
G                        Em
This hurricane's within me

G
Love is a sunrise
Em
Where's the light to
G
Eclipse my grief
G
Grace speaks in silence
C                                   G       C
I've been quiet but only hear my own screams

G
I was fifteen when I had my first drink
Em
Numb on the sofa across from a shrink
G                                      Em
Keeping my mouth shut and grinding my teeth
G
I got away as far as I could
C                       Em
But that didn't' do me any good
G
This hurricane's within me
G
I'm a force of nature
G
Keep your saviors
C
There's no prayer
             G        C
See you reconcile me
G
Paint me a picture
C
One where I have
            G             C
Finally cried myself clean
G
Show me a picture
C
One where I am
             G      C
Forgiven and free
