Tuning is standard( E A D G B e)
Capo 1
[Verse 1]
Dear pain, oh, it s been a long time
Remember when you were holding me tight
I would stay awake with you all night
Dear shame, I was safe in your arms
You were there when it all fell apart
I would get so lost in your beautiful lies
[Pre-Chorus]
I let you go
But you re still chasing
[Chorus]
Go ahead
You re never gonna take me
You can bend
But you re never gonna break me
I was yours
I m not yours anymore
Oh, you don t own me
[Verse 2]
Dear hate, I know you re not far
You would wait at the door of my heart
I was amazed at the passion in your cries
Dear anger, you made me so high
You were faithful to show up on time
Such a flame that was burning in your eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
I let you go
But you re still chasing
[Chorus] (x2)
Go ahead
You re never gonna take me
You can bend
But you re never gonna break me
I was yours
I m not yours anymore
Oh, you don t own me
[Bridge]
You tempted me to look back
But everything that we had together was a lie
[Chorus] (x3)
Go ahead
You re never gonna take me
You can bend
sus4(add9)
But you re never gonna break me
I was yours
But I m not yours anymore
Oh, you don t own me
