[Verse 1]
D
Standing here like I'm supposed to say something
F#m
Don't hold your breath, I never said I'd save you, honey
G
And I don't want your money. If I was you, I'd run from me
    A
or rip me open. You'll see you're not the only one who's hopeless.
D
Be sure to put your faith in something more
F#m
I'm just a girl and you're not as alone as you feel

We all got problems, don't we? We all need heroes, don't we?

But rest assured, there's not a single person here who's worthy

And if that's what you want
                  G
I hate to let you down
                 A
I got your hopes up
                G 
Now I got you hoping
               A
That I'm gonna be the one to let you down


[Verse 2]
D
Oh, it's such a long and awful lonely fall
F#m
Down from this pedestal that you keep putting me on
G
What if I fall on my face? What if I make a mistake?
A
If it's okay a little grace would be appreciated
D
Remember how we used to like ourselves?
F#m
What little light that's left, we need to keep it sacred
G
I know that you're afraid to let all the dark escape ya

But we can let the light illuminate these hopeless places

Just let me let you down

And if that's what you want
                  G
I hate to let you down
                 A
I got your hopes up
                G 
Now I got you hoping
               A
That I'm gonna be the one to let you down

You're wasting all your faith on me
Bm                   A
Oh, no, I know where this goes
