[Verse 1]
 Em                   G
    Your feelings they arrest you
 C                    Bm
    The tragic, they will bless you
 Em                  G
    You don't respect the past
 C                      Bm
    You think the world's unsafe
 Em                       G
    And think that you gotta act
 C                               Bm
    Like you're at peace with all of the facts
 Em                                         G
    But I know that there's much more to you than that
 C                                       Bm
    I know that there's much more to you than that


[Chorus]
G                                 C
I wish that you were happy in your skin
G                                    C
I wish that I could show you where the center is
G                                   C
But I believe the sleights are in your head
G                                  C
'Cause I will love you long after I'm dead

Em       G        C
Chin up, chin up, chin up
Em       G        C
Chin up, chin up, chin up
Em       G        C
Chin up, chin up, chin up
Em       G        C
Chin up, chin up, chin up

[Verse 2]
 Em                      G
    You're reeling, then he wrecks you
 C                    Bm
    Thrown out like the refuse
 Em
    Bleach your hair, live in the sun
 Em                            G
    Make believe you're just like everyone
              C
A little man with a big gun
              Bm
A little man with a big gun


[Chorus]
G                                 C
I wish that you were happy in your skin
G                                    C
I wish that I could show you where the center is
G                                   C
But I believe the sleights are in your head
G                                  C
'Cause I will love you long after I'm dead


[Outro]
Em       G        C
Chin up, chin up, chin up
Em       G        C
Chin up, chin up, chin up
Em       G        C
Chin up, chin up, chin up
Em       G        C
Chin up, chin up, chin up
Em       G        C
Chin up, chin up, chin up
