Verse 1:
            B
Cancellin' plans
                 Gb
When I need people most
B           Abm
Grievin' my old life
           E
But I'm not that old
                     B
They say, "You look well"
                        Gb
But there's a war in my mind
B                   Abm
And I don't get outside much
                             E
'Cause the sunlight hurts my eyes

Chorus:
E
Day by day, feelin' more fragile
     B
And I'm not thinkin' straight
     Abm
I'm tired of bein' exhausted
     E
And livin' in this state
E
It's hard makin' sense of this suffering
        B        Gb     Abm
When I feel like no one knows
     Gb      E
What I go through
    Abm                Gb              B   E   B
But no one knows suffering better than You

Verse 2:
B
Can't wait for the day
                 Gb
That I feel like myself
                Abm
And all this surviving's
               Gb                   E
A chapter of life tucked away on a shelf
                      B
But I find comfort in knowing
                Gb
That You were human, too
                  Abm
'Cause You empathize when I
           Gb                  E
Feel ostracized in a crowded room

Chorus:
E
I've never felt so lonely
B                       Gb
And I've never felt so low
         Abm
But just like You felt in the garden
         E               Gb
In Your anguish, cryin' alone
     E
You had to make sense of this sufferin'
B             Gb     Abm  Gb      E
Now I have a loving Savior to run to
    Abm                   Gb           B    Gb  Abm
And no one knows suffering better than You

Verse 3:
                B
On this side of Heaven
       Gb
I may never know
     Ab           Ab
Why some of Your children
Gb                      E
Get to the end of their rope
E
But You paved the way for the hopeless
   B                Gb
So I can run to the One
     Abm     Gb   E
Who felt all that I do
       Abm                  Gb            B
'Cause no one knows suffering better than You

Outro:
B
Can't wait for the day
                 Gb
That I feel like myself
                 Abm
And all this surviving's
              Gb             E
