C                  Em7
The truth can hurt you

What would truth do to you

[Verse 1]

So I'm not happy

[Pre-Chorus]
                  C
Cry yourself to sleep
                      Bm7 E7
Shout and raise your hands
                    Am7
It won't change a thing child
              F
Until you understand

[Chorus]

If you're tired of being the same
            Em7/B
If you're tired of things not changing
      Am7                         F
It's time for you to get out the way

Say Jesus take the wheel
     Am7                            F   Fm
He knows the road that you need to take

[Verse 2]
           Em7
But if I keep on giving my heart

For people to tear apart

So I can be happy

Will I ever be happy
