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 And let the words fall out F Honestly I wanna see you be brave Bb I just wanna see you Eb I just wanna see you Gm I just wanna see you F I wanna see you be brave Bb I just wanna see you Eb I just wanna see you Gm I just wanna see you F I wanna see you be brave [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/s/sara-bareilles/351630.html ] Bb 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 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 And let the words fall out F Honestly I wanna see you be brave 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 Fsus F Why don’t you tell them the truth? 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 And let the words fall out F Honestly I wanna see you be brave Bb I just wanna see you Eb I just wanna see you Gm I just wanna see you F I wanna see you be brave Bb I just wanna see you Eb I just wanna see you Gm I just wanna see you Bb F I wanna see you be brave Bb I just wanna see you Eb I just wanna see you Gm F I just wanna see you
