D                                                   Bm
We make patterns out of stars and we whisper little prayers
                           G                              A
To be somewhere that we're not and if we're good it will take us there

D                                                                Bm
But then the light comes through the dark and our questions fall apart
                              G                           A
It's just the beating of our hearts and the still of the midnight air

[Pre-Chorus]
D           Bm                     G
And I get so overwhelmed till it's hard to tell
          A
What I'm thinking

[Chorus]
       D
We get down down down, we feel sorry for ourselves
        Bm
We get down down down, we all need somebody's help
          D
Let's get loud loud loud, till there's love and nothing else
           G                      A                     D
'Cause the more that you give the more that comes back around

[Verse 2]
D                                                  Bm
So we hide away our hurts and put bandaids on our fears
                       G                              A
And we lie to all our friends: move along there's no problems here

D                                                     Bm
But then the orchestra will start, and the violins appear
                     G             A
And a simple little melody has us fighting tears

[Pre-Chorus]
D           Bm                     G
And I get so overwhelmed till it's hard to tell
          A
What I'm thinking

[Chorus]
       D
We get down down down, we feel sorry for ourselves
        Bm
We get down down down, we all need somebody's help
          D
Let's get loud loud loud, till there's love and nothing else
           G                      A                     D
'Cause the more that you give the more that comes back around

[Bridge]
        Bm                  G
But the hardest part is the way things are
        D                    A
And how quickly fingers will bleed
        Bm                      G
And the grace we need is not in magazines,
          D                          A
It's just space, in between, when we breathe

[Chorus]
     D
I am down down down, I feel sorry for myself
          Bm
And I get down down down, and I need somebody's help
           D
Let's get loud loud loud, till there's love and nothing else
           G                      A
'Cause the more that we give, the more that comes back...
D
Down down down, we feel sorry for ourselves
       Bm
We're down down down, we all need somebody's help
           D
Let's get loud loud loud, till there's love and nothing else
           G                      A                    D
'Cause the more that you give the more that comes back around
           G                      A                    Bm
'Cause the more that you give the more that comes back around
           G                      A                    D
'Cause the more that you give the more that comes back around
