Speak Out

	  		 

G              D/F#           Em   C 
I  call my dad, but never talk 
G             D/F#           Em     C 
Can't ever say quite what I want 
        G                   D/F# 
No, it's never enough, never enough 
            Em                   C 
When the words just don't add up 

         G        D/F#             Em C 
So I call my dad, and never talk 
G                       D/F#                    Em 
I'm so sick of my past breakin' me like glass 
                   C 
Shackled by my emotion 

       G                   D/F#                     Em 
I keep sayin' I'll change, keep stayin' the same 
                       C 
Can't seem to let it go, so 

G               D/F# 
Speak up, speak out 
                      Em                 C 
I'm screamin' out but I don't make a sound, no 
           G        D/F# 
Gotta get up, go now 
                          Em                  C 
Don't wait for the moment just to keep missin' out, yeah 
G                       D/F#           Em               C 
All my excuses, I overuse them every time I open my mouth 
          G            D/F#           Em 
For all the times I never knew how 
 C                     G 
To speak up, I, I'll speak out 

( G  D/F#  Em  C ) 

G                     D/F#              Em 
My walls, they know the worst of it 
                           C 
Sometimes we gotta knock 'em down 
G                       D/F#               Em 
I wish they could say the things I can't admit 
                   C 
Just gotta let it out 

 G                                D/F#                Em 
Tongue-tied, kept my lips shut, forget it, so what? 
                     C 
Now I gotta face the feelin' 
G                           D/F#                    Em 
I keep sayin' I'll change, keep stayin' the same 
                      C 
Can't seem to let it go, so

Don't wanna be a sinkin' ship 
G                       C                  Em 
The anchor on my tongue won't let me swim 
G                           Em 
Don't wanna waste a moment more 
D/F#                            Em 
Don't know what I've been waitin' for 
G                                       C 
I'll never get a chance like this again
