[Verse 1]
Em      C       G
Dear God, please hear me out
  D                             Em
I know it's been a couple years
          C       G                   D
Since I've reached out and said hello
                      Em   C      G
I bet you're wondering why I keep
                 D                               Em
Obsessing on and stressing all the little things
      C         G                D                       Em
When I should be living life and soaking up the memories
       C                  G
I know I've been selfish, I have
     D                           Em
No excuse to give you, it's true
        C                 G
Hanging by a thread's how I live
                D                             Em
I don't know why, but I feel more comfortable
 
 
[Chorus]
             C
Living in my agony
            G                    D                           Em
Watching my self-esteem go up in flames, acting like I don't
             C
Care what anyone else thinks
            G                          D                         Em
When I know truthfully that that's the furthest thing from how I
                  C                            G
Feel, but I'm too proud to open up and ask you
                  D                                    Em
To pick me up and pull me out this hole I'm trapped in
                    C                              G
The truth is I need help, but I just can't imagine
        D
Who I'd be if I was happy
 
 
[Verse 2]
Em
Yeah, been this way so long
         C
It feels like something's off when I'm not depressed
          G
I got some issues that I won't address
          D
I got some baggage I ain't open yet
          Em
I got some demons I should put to rest
          C
I got some traumas that I can't forget
          G
I got some phone calls I've been avoiding
        D
Some family members I don't really connect with
              Em
Some things I said, I wish I woulda not let slip
         C
Some hurtful words that never shoulda left my lips
     G
Some bridges burned, I'm not ready to rebuild yet
         D
Some insecurities I haven't dealt with, yes
            Em
I'll be the first to admit that I'm a lonely soul
        C
And the last to admit I need a hand to hold
  G
Losing hope, heading down a dangerous road
         D                                         Em
Strange, I know, but I feel most at home when I'm—
 
 
[Chorus]
             C
Living in my agony
            G                    D                           Em
Watching my self-esteem go up in flames, acting like I don't
             C
Care what anyone else thinks
            G                          D                         Em
When I know truthfully that that's the furthest thing from how I
                  C                            G
Feel, but I'm too proud to open up and ask you
                  D                                    Em
To pick me up and pull me out this hole I'm trapped in
                    C                              G
The truth is I need help, but I just can't imagine
        D                 Em
Who I'd be if I was happy
 
 
[Bridge]
C                           G
Don't know what's around the bend
D                        Em
Don't know what my future is
    C                     G    D Em
But I can't keep on living in—
 
 
[Chorus]
             C
Living in my agony
            G                    D                           Em
Watching my self-esteem go up in flames, acting like I don't
             C
Care what anyone else thinks
            G                          D                         Em
When I know truthfully that that's the furthest thing from how I
                  C                            G
Feel, but I'm too proud to open up and ask you
                  D                                    Em
To pick me up and pull me out this hole I'm trapped in
                    C                              G
The truth is I need help, but I just can't imagine
        D
Who I'd be if I was happy
 
 
[Outro]
Em C G D
Ooh  ooh if I was happy
Em C G D
Ooh  ooh If I was happy
