Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Em][D][Em]

[Verse 1]
[G]I'm afraid,
I've lost the piece of [D]me
I need the most you see
This [Em]puzzle is really just about the need
[D]To be somebody

[Verse 2]
[G]I'm afr[Bm]aid, I'm not[Em] all that you[G] see
[D]All along the coast of me[Bm]
[Em]I'm camouflaged
A desert mirage, a [D]nobody[Am][Em]

[Verse 3]
[G]But you came so clo[Bm]se
And [G]I ass[D]umed you were looking
For the piece of your[Bm]self that's [Em]lost
It is the hiding place inside [D]everybody[C]

[Verse 4]
[G]And though we love to numb the pai[D]n
We come to learn that it's in vain
[Em]Pain is our mother
She makes us [D]recognize each [Am]other
[C]c'mon[Am] now, chi[C]ld, don't

[Verse 5]
[G]cry[D]
C'mon [Bm]now, child, don't [Em]cry[C]
Let's give it one [G]more [D]try
C'mon now, child, don't [Em]cry[C]

[Verse 6]
[G]Sometim[C]es,
I [D]feel so [G]all [D]alone here [Bm]in this city
I call my [Em]home
They say, "Hey, you're [Bm]one of us"
[C]Funny, I should feel so anonymous

[Verse 7]
[G]But I'm dra[Gm]wn to you
[G]And that still small voi[D]ce is tal[Bm]king too
And [Em]that's the voice that
so seldom can get [D]through

[Verse 8]
c'mon now, child, don't [G]cry[D]
C'mon [Bm]now, child, don't [Em]cry[C]
Let's give it one [G]more [D]try
C'[Bm]mon now, child,
don't [Em]cry[C]

[Verse 9]
You can't [G]put no band aid on this cancer
Like a [D]twenty dollar bill for
a topless dancer
[Em]You need questions,
forget about the answers
[C]Do you really wanna die[D] this way[C]?

[Verse 10]
[G]That's the trouble with you and me
We always [D]hit the bottom
Before we get set free,
I'm [Em]so far down
I'm beginning to [D]breathe[C]

[Verse 11]
c'mon now, child, don't [G]cry[D]
C'mon now, child, don't [Em]cry[C]
Let's give it one [G]more [D]try
C'mon now, child,
don't [Em]cry[C]
'Cause we're just too
[G]young [D]to die

[Verse 12]
c'mon now, child, don't [Em]cry[C]
Let's give it one [G]more [D]try
C'mon now, [Bm]child, don't [Em]cry[C]
C'mon now, c'mon [G]now[D]
[Bm]c'mon now chil[D]d don't

[Verse 13]
[Em]cry[C]
C'mon now, child,
[G]c'm[Bm]on now[G][D]
C'mon [Bm]now, [Em]child, don't cry
C'[C]mon now, c'mon now, c'mon now

[Verse 14]
c'[G]mon now, c'[D]mon,
[Em]yeah[C]
C'mon, c'mon now, child,
[G]don't [D]cry
C'mon now, child, [Em]don't cry

[Outro 1]
[C]
