The Anonymous Ones

(from "Dear Evan Hansen" soundtrack)

[Verse 1]
A                                                            D
Ever look at all the people, seem to know exactly how to be? 
 
(How to be, how to be now, how to be)
         A                                                           D
You think they don't need piles of prescriptions to function naturally? 
 
(Functioning natural)
A                                                         D
Take a look and you might just catch it, stay a minute more 
 
(Minute more, minute more now, minute more)
         A                                                              D
There's a little moment after the sunny smile that eyes fall to the floor 
 
(To the floor, to the floor now, to the floor)
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
        A                    D
And then truth starts peeking through (Peeking through)
         A                  D
They don't lie like me and you
        A                D
They can fake a smile too
 
 
[Chorus]
     F#m             A                              D                                  E
Thе anonymous ones never lеt you see the hate they carry (They carry, they carry, they carry)
     F#m                A                              D                                  E
All those anonymous ones never name the quiet pain they bury (They bury, they bury, they bury)
F#m                               E
Keep on keeping secrets that they think they have to hide
         D                                          E
What if everybody's secret is they have that secret side?
       F#m                     Em       A         D
And to know, to know we're not alone is all we're hoping for
C
I don't wanna be anonymous
Bm
I ain't gotta be anonymous
                           A          D
I don't wanna be anonymous anymore (Anymore)
 
 
[Verse 2]
A                                                             D
Spot the girl who stays in motion, spins so fast so she won't fall 
 
(World's spinning so fast, spinning so fast)
A                                                                        D
She's built a wall of her achievements to keep out the question, without it is she worth anything at all?
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
     A                   D
And truth starts peeking through
     A                   D
They don't lie like me and you
      A                D
They can fake a smile too
 
 
[Chorus]
     F#m           A                               D                                   E
The anonymous ones never let you see the hate they carry (They carry, they carry, they carry)
           F#m           A                              D                                E
All those anonymous ones never name the quiet pain they bury (They bury, they bury, they bury)
C
I don't wanna be anonymous
Bm
I ain't gotta be anonymous
                              A
I don't wanna be anonymous anymore
 
 
[Bridge]
A
The parts we can't tell, we carry them well, but that doesn't mean they're not heavy
   F#m
The parts we can't tell, we carry them well, but that doesn't mean they're not heavy 
 
(I don't wanna be anonymous anymore)
    E                                                                              D
The parts we can't tell, we carry them well, but that doesn't mean they're not heavy, heavy
 
 
[Chorus]
F#m              A                              D                                  E
Anonymous ones never let you see the hate they carry (They carry, they carry, they carry)
         F#m            A                             D     E
All the anonymous ones never name the quiet pain they bury
F#m                               E
Keep on keeping secrets that they think they have to hide
         D                                          E
What if everybody's secret is they have that secret side?
       F#m                     Em       A                D
And to know, to know we're not alone is all we're hoping for
C
I don't wanna be anonymous
Bm
I ain't gotta be anonymous
                              A
I don't wanna be anonymous anymore
