Build Yourself by Lauren O'Connell
Build Yourself
Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: G
[Verse]
G
A familiar sound
Em
Another slow collapse
C Em
I called home so I’d know
D
That I had somewhere to go
G
And I carried on
Em
Like somehow they should be proud
C
There’s this strength in their daughter
Em
Come hell or high water
D Em G
She will argue while she drowns
[Chorus]
C G
Like I was born into the feeling
Bm C
I'd earned the right to act as though
Em
We all might as well be quitters
D
And I'm the only one who knows
C G
So my sense of truth is waning
Bm C
Dragging right behind my pride
C Em
But losing feels so graceful
D C G
When I pretend my hands were tied
C Em D
C G
[Verse]
G
Now I’m back in that dream
Em
Where I sat in the wrong seat
C
But somehow drove
Em D
Halfway to I don’t know
G
And if they find me like this
Em
Who’s really gonna believe
C Em
This was not me, this was not me
D Em G
I know I did it but it was not me
[Chorus]
C G
So now they’re running diagnostics
Bm C
On everything you’ll ever have
Em D
“The system had potential but the wiring was bad
C G
But our age is one of wonders
Bm C
So let nothing get you down
Em D C G
We’ll find another glitch that you can build yourself around”
C G D
C G
C G D
C G
D
[Chorus]
C G
You can scramble for an exit
Bm C
When the world starts pouring in
Em
You can give your life to God
D
But you will need it more than him
C G
And you know that the wind is still gonna find you
Bm C
And as the pressure starts to build
Em
You can beat yourself to death out there, oh
D C G
Just by standing still
C G D
C G
C G D
C G D
