[Verse 1]
C
This is all I ever wanted
G
All I ever thought I'd be

It's the only place I truly feel

As though I can be me
Am
But the way I arrived
G
It was overnight
Am

Em C D C
Been on my worst behaviour
[Chorus]
G
If only it ain't been like this
Am
Now I can hold my heart in a fist
Em
And all the voices leave
C D
I can finally put it on my sleeve
G D Em
Oo-oh, if only they'd really seen it
D Am
Maybe they would finally believe me

When I say I've won
