C                 Dm    Am
I don't feel like I'm myself today
C               Dm       Am
Something in me just let go
C             Dm      Am
Took some medicine to numb the pain
C                 Dm     Am
Went so dark, you never know

C                 Dm       Am
I'm being honest with you now
                      C
Hanging but afraid am I
                   Dm    Am
Don't excuse this bad behavior

Chorus:
                       F      G  Am
But tonight, I need a savior (Oh-oh)
                           Em         F
And you're looking like a savior (Oh, ooh)
                               F       G  Am
Sometimes you need someone to save ya (Oh-oh)
                        Em      F
Hoping you could be my savior (Savior)

I don't feel like I belong today
Something in me just walked out (Yeah)
So many things that people never say
Like how I just need you right now (Mmm)

I'm being honest, don't know why
Hangin' by a thread, I am
If you leave, I wouldn't blame ya

Chorus

 F      G    Am
Yes, I have fright, mm
Em                    F
It's not so easy to show this side
F        G        Am
I jumped in this water
Em                              F
Oh, yeah, but you look like a bridge tonight

Chorus

F       G  Am
Savior (Woo, oh-oh)
Em         F
Savior (Savior, oh-oh)
F          G  Am
Savior (Savior, oh-oh)
Em         F
Savior (Savior)

C                 Dm    Am
I don't feel like I'm myself today
C               Dm       Am
Something in me just let go
