Intro: E A E A E D A

Verse 1:
E                                       A
Sun-bleached flies sitting in the windowsill
E                          A
Waiting for the day they escape
          E                                   A
They talk all about their money and how their babies are always changing
              E                D             A
While they're breathing in the poison of the paint
E                             A
What I wouldn't give to be in church this Sunday
E                                   A
Listening to the choir so heartfelt, all singing
E                                 A
"God loves you, but not enough to save you"
         E                      D           A
So, baby girl, good luck taking care of yourself

Pre-chorus:
          B                                A
So I said fine, 'cause that's how my daddy raised me
               B                           E        A
If they strike once, then you just hit 'em twice as hard
           B                                         A
But in the end, if I bend under the weight that they gave me
          E                             B        A
Then this heart would break and fall as twice as far

Interlude: B A E B A E

Verse 2:
E                  A
We all know how it goes
E                              A
The more it hurts, the less it shows
E                    Emaj7     A
But I still feel like they all know
E                            D       A
And that's why I could never go back home
      E     Emaj7 A
And I spend my life
E                          A
Watching it go by from the sidelines
    E    Emaj7 A
And God, I've tried
      E                           D    A
But I think it's about time I put up a fight

Pre-chorus:
    B                                       A
But I don't mind 'cause that's how my daddy raised me (how my daddy raised me)
               B                                    A
If they strike once, then you just hit 'em twice as hard (hit 'em twice as hard)
             B                                A
But I always knew that in the end, no one was coming to save me
          A                  Amaj7       Am          E
So I just prayed, and I keep praying and praying and praying

Chorus:
E                                A
If it's meant to be then it will be (oh, oh)
    B                               A
So I met him there and told him I believe (oh, oh)
          E                        D       A
Singing, "If it's meant to be then it will be" (it'll be)
  Dbm               B                A
I forgive it all as it comes back to me (back to me, oh)
E                                A
If it's meant to be then it will be (oh, it will be, yeah)
     B                              A
So I met him there and told him I believe (I believe, yeah)
          E                         D      A
Singing, "If it's meant to be then it will be" (oh)
  Dbm               B                A
I forgive it all as it comes back to me (it all comes back to me)
E                                A
If it's meant to be then it will be (it will be, it will be, it will be)
     B                              A
So I met him there and told him I believe (I believe, yeah)
          E                        D       A
Singing, "If it's meant to be then it will be" (yeah)
      Dbm               B                A
And I forgive it all as it comes back to me (oh)

Outro:
              E                         A
And I'm still praying for that house in Nebraska
       E                           A
By the highway, out on the edge of town
E
Dancing with the windows open
  A
I can't let go when something's broken
     Dbm                 B          A
It's all I know and it's all I want now
