[Verse]
Am
Who do I hope to finally be?
      F                G
Is it not your life in me?
        F                 Em7
Yet the how's too hard to see
         Dm
Too many times

Am
Will I ever finally be
    F              G7
The true, intented me?
      F              Em7
And the old in me be freed
         D
And left behind?


[Chorus]
A

Fm       E
Too many times
         C
I'm back inside
        G              D
Wanting desperately to hide
      F                E
Yet i know, i know you say
            A7
You have to die
F#m      E
Too many times
            C
You hear my cries
           G             D
I'm at the end of all my tries
        F
So, i'm open Lord, so
E               Am
Teach me how to die

Am
Here I am again alone
            F
Afraid i'll lose all that i own
        Em
Yet you see me as your own
         D
I cannot fall

    Am
And what I am I still am not
   F#m
At times i count the cost
      F                    Em
Yet i find there's nothing lost
             D
If i give it all


[Chorus]
A

Fm       E
Too many times

I'm back inside

Wanting desperately to hide
      E
Yet i know, i know you say
    A7
You have to die
Am      E
Too many times
            C
You hear my cries
           G             D
I'm at the end of all my tries
        F
So, i'm open Lord, so
E               A
Teach me how to die
