(Verse) 


               Eb          F  
I was at that point where love and me 
      Gm                Dm   
Were nothing more than enemies 
            Eb              F 
I was the stereotype of a person in my position 
      Gm                       Dm 
The epitome of one's history turning a heart cold 


(Pre-Chorus) 


Eb             Cm       Bb 
  You single-handedly helped me find my sanity 
     Eb                  Cm    Bb 
And all the things I've never had 

F 

(Chorus) 


           Eb    Bb 
You make growing up  
F          Gm    
 seem not so bad 
              Eb              Bb 
And for the first time in my life  
      F  
I can overlook the past 
           Eb    Bb 
You make growing up  
F          Gm    
 seem not so bad 
           Eb       Bb      F 
And I can finally close my eyes 


(Verse) 


                Eb     F 
You'll never know how much it means (how much it means) 
      Gm                Dm 
To know I'd be heard if I were to scream 
 Eb                            F 
Safe from those feelings that used to take hold 
              Gm                     Dm 
Now I'm the epitome of one's misery finally letting go 


(Pre-Chorus) 


Eb             Cm       Bb 
  You single-handedly helped me find my sanity 
     Eb                  Cm    Bb 
And all the things I've never had 


(Chorus) 


           Eb    Bb 
You make growing up  
F          Gm    
 seem not so bad 
              Eb              Bb 
And for the first time in my life  
      F  
I can overlook the past 
           Eb    Bb 
You make growing up  
F          Gm    
 seem not so bad 
           Eb       Bb      F 
And I can finally close my eyes

   D/Eb             Eb 
Tonight I'll close my eyes  
     Bb                F 
and finally get some sleep

(BUILD-UP) 


   D/Eb            Eb 
I gave up on make believe  
         Bb          F  
thought no one was made for me 
      D/Eb                Eb 
But things you would say to me,  
        Bb            F  
they threw it all away 
     D/Eb          Eb 
And took me to a place  
           Bb           F 
where the look upon my face 
   D/Eb           Eb 
Was no longer bitter,  
Bb                  F 
  I'm no longer bitter

And for the first time in my life  
      F  
I can overlook the past 
           Eb    Bb 
You make growing up  
F          Gm    
 seem not so bad 
           Eb       Bb      F 
And I can finally close my eyes

Yeah we're growing up 
             Eb    Bb  F  Gm 
Yeah we're growing up

And we can finally close our eyes
