Fmaj7         Fmaj7      C
God I Need To See Me Through Your Eyes
Gsus4       Gsus4      Am
I’ve Been So Dependent On How I
Fmaj7         Fmaj7      C
Think They Think Of Me, Truth Pushed Aside

By The Opinions I’ve Been Harboring

Verse 2:
Fmaj7         Fmaj7      C
Failing Expectations Made In My Brain
Gsus4       Gsus4      Am
They’re The Reason I Avoid All The Mirrors
Fmaj7         Fmaj7      C
Or Tears Well Up Deep In My Eyes

Cause I Can’t Pick A Single Thing That I Like

Chorus:

If You Wrote My Life
               Gsus4

I’ve Been Struggling To Love Who I Am

Am           Am                  F
If I’m Honest I Want To Leave My Skin
       F                 C
I’m So Exhausting To Live In
     C            E
But Pen To Paper, You Say
                 E7
That You Want Me Exactly As I Am

Am           Am             F
So Prove That I’m Worthy To Love
     F                    C
Even All Of The Parts That I Loathe
C             Gsus4        G
And I’m Allowed To Love Me Whole

Chorus:
Fmaj7            C
I Wanna Love Who I Am
                Gsus4
Not Through Somebody’s Lens’s
    Gsus4           Am
But Through The Author Holding The Pen
Fmaj7           C
If You Wrote My Life
               Gsus4
Please Tell Me Why
     Gsus4          Am
I’ve Been Struggling To Love Who I Am

And From Your Pen
