I Knew

Verse 1:
D
Your dad said
                  Bm
That you couldn’t cry
        Gb
All the tears
                        G   Gm
You decided to put them aside
D
Are they ashamed?
                   Bm
Ashamed what they showed you?
                 Gb
They lead you to think
                              G  Gm
That what they were doing was fine

Chorus:
    Em    A
But I- knew
        D                   Bm
All the things they put you through
    Em  A
And I- knew
          D
That you should’ve grown up
           Bm
with some parents that loved you
  Em     A
I kneeeeeeewwww
         D                      Bm
That you didn’t have someone to talk to
             Em A
That’s why I knew
             D
That’s why I knew

Verse 2:
    D
You memorised
                   Bm
The sound of their footsteps
          Gb
Cause you knew
                                   G   Gm
That no matter the thing that they yell
            D
You fake a smile
                          Bm
You can’t show them you’re drowning
           Gb
Then the person who’s pushing you down
               G    Gm
You needed the most

Chorus:
     Em    A
But I- knew
        D                   Bm
All the things they put you through
    Em    A
And I- knew
         D
That you should’ve grown up
                        Bm
with some parents that loved you
  Em     A
I kneeeeeeewwww
         D                      Bm
That you didn’t have someone to run to
            Em   A
That’s why I knew
              D
That’s why I knew

Outro:
           Em    A
That’s why I knew
             D
That’s why I knew
