Verse 1

Dm I'll never know your pain, Dm/E Bb I've never walked in your shoes. Dm I know your life ain't fair, Dm/E Bb I know it's damn near killed you. Dm You've been through hell, Dm/E Bb You blame yourself, a painful past you can't forgive. Dm You had no help, Dm/E Bb* But time will tell if it's a curse or it's a gift.

Chorus

N.C. Bb F But if you're still breathing, breathing, C Dm You made it through your darkest days, Bb F If your heart's still beating, beating, C Dm Then you are gonna be okay, Bb C You've had millions of reasons to bend and to break, Dm F But you're still alive and that's not a mistake, Bb The war in your head tells a story that's still, C* Worth believing, 'cause you're still breathing. Dm Dm/E Bb ('Cause you're still breathing), Dm Dm/E Bb ('Cause you're still breathing).

Verse 2

Dm If you've been up all night, Dm/E Bb Thinking it won't get better. Dm No need to wear your scars, Dm/E Bb Like a scarlet letter. Dm You're on the ledge, Dm/E Bb But not the end, it helped you see another way. Dm A broken heart, Dm/E Bb* A brand new start, tomorrow everything could change.

Chorus

N.C. Bb F 'Cause if you're still breathing, breathing, C Dm You made it through your darkest days, Bb F If your heart's still beating, beating, C Dm Then you are gonna be okay, Bb C You've had millions of reasons to bend and to break, Dm F But you're still alive and that's not a mistake, Bb The war in your head tells a story that's still, C* Worth believing, 'cause you're still breathing.
