D# In the basement of an empty house I slept on the floor like a vagrant I braved a Minnesota winter night And drove to a movie feeling lonely D# Gm Cm And as I thawed my heart out by the light Gm Of the silver screen A# F I was unaware that you were there Cm Gm In the dark, a silhouette A# F Was climbing up the stairs Chorus: D# And what I thought Gm In the parking lot A# F Was like, I just wanna know your name D# I drove away Gm With not much to say A# F But in my hand I held a paper bird Cm Gm A# F And written on it were the words D# Be brave Wildflower knew I wasn’t well But on the kitchen floor I got better again I grabbed my keys and drove toward a star And there, I was understood for the first time in my life Cause that’s when I was introduced to true Serendipity I knew it when You showed up again In the snow, I was always told Your heart is where you’re home Chorus: And what I thought In the coffee shop Was like, the last eight hours was a dream I drove away With not much to say But in my hand I held a paper bird And written on it were the words Ok, I'll be brave Ok, I'll be brave And in my mind After all this time I think, ain't life beautiful and strange I’m blown away With no words to say Cause I, I’ll forever be amazed How I learned the meaning of the phrase Be brave You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA# Cm D# F Gm Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
