Brave


Words and Music by Sara Bareilles and Jack Antonoff

Key: Bb
Time: 4/4 (Moderately)

Intro
Bb

Bb
You can be amazing

You can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug
Gm
You can be the outcast

Or be the backlash of somebody’s lack of love
Eb  F
Or you can start speaking up
Bb
Nothing’s gonna hurt you the way that words do

When they settle ‘neath your skin
Gm
Kept on the inside and no sunlight
                    Eb
Sometimes a shadow wins
       F
But I wonder what would happen if you

+

Bb
Say what you wanna say
Gm                     Eb
And let the words fall out
         F   
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
Bb
With what you want to say
Gm                     Eb

Everybody’s been there, everybody’s been stared down

By the enemy
Gm
Fallen for the fear and done some disappearing
Em
Bow down to the mighty
Eb         F
Don’t run, just stop holding your tongue
Bb
Maybe there’s a way out of the cage where you live
Gm
Maybe one of these days you can let the light in
Eb       F
Show me how big your brave is

Say what you wanna say

Gm         Bb
And since, your history of silence
Bb/D           Eb
Won’t do you any good
Bb/D          Eb
Did you think it would?
Gm                Bb
Let your words be anything but empty

Why don’t you tell them the truth?
