C                G             F
If we make it through this year
      G            C     G F G
Then nothing can break us
  C                   G      F
Trouble leaves, then reappears
            G            C    G F G
But we've shown we can take it

Dm  C        G
We tear our hair out
    G
And overthink it
Dm   C        G
Work and get burned out

Chorus:
             C    G
But this is no strings
        C/E    F
You are who I love
          C      G
And that won't change
           C/E       F
When we're falling apart
             C    G
And this is no strings
         C/E   F
You are who I love
           Am G    F
It's just growing pains

If we make it through this year
We should celebrate it
Rarified atmosphere
Till now, we evaded

We tore the walls down to build them up
Never was in doubt

Chorus:
'Cause this is no strings, you are who I love
And that won't change when we're fallin' apart
Yeah, this is no strings, you are who I love
It's just growin' pains

F C                   G
We did not fight for love
Just to let it be defeated
F           C                       G
What we're going through is common but
It doesn't mean we don't feel it
F            C                   G
It would be easy just to give it up
Guess we've got enough reason
F          C                        G
But every time that we have come undone

Chorus:
I'll say, "It's no strings, you are who I love
And that won't change when we're fallin' apart
Yeah, this is no strings, you are who I love
It's just growin' pains"
