A      D F#m    D     E

[Verse 1]
A
Staring in the mirror
                          F#m
Watching as the walls are closing in
     D
A shadow of a figure
                             E
Trying to make the best of the state that I am in
  A
I guess I could do with the friends
                      F#m
I've been pushing away
           D
But I’m destined to suffer until I discover
      E
The reasons I'm afraid


[Chorus]
            A
God knows I try
                F#m
It might not be good enough
D
  But it's all I have to give
        E
This is all I have to give
             A
You might be right sometimes
        F#m
I never open up
D
  But it’s all I have to give
        E
This is all I have to give


[Verse 2]
A
Staring in the mirror
                          F#m
Picturing the face of a younger man
D
  He buries it away
D
'Cause he's gotta try and cope
        E
In a way he understands
     A
Be there for your brother
                               F#m
And strong for your mother again
D
  'Cause he's too young to get it
                              E
And she'll get upset if she knows you feel the pain

[Chorus]
            A
God knows I try
                F#m
It might not be good enough
D
  But it's all I have to give
        E
This is all I have to give
             A
You might be right sometimes
                  F#m
I'm too scared to open up
D
  But it’s all I have to give
        E
This is all I have to give
   D
To you

[Bridge]
  E                                   F#m
I tell myself there’s nothing left to lose
        E                            D
I don't know why I’m hiding from the truth
       E                       F#m
I face myself and all I see is you
   C#m
Is you
N.C.
Staring in the mirror
N.C.
Watching as the walls are closing in

[Chorus]
            A
God knows I try
                F#m
It might not be good enough
D
  But it's all I have to give
        E
This is all I have to give
             A
You might be right sometimes
                  F#m
I'm too scared to open up
D
  But it’s all I have to give
        E
This is all I have to give
   D
To you
   F#m
To you

[Outro]
D                            E     A
  This is all I have to give
