   Bm    D       G
It all starts today
                  Bm   D    G
I'm letting go of all my mistakes

Bm                D
Tell me it's a simulation
G
I'll go wherever you go
Bm               D
Tryna find stimulation
G
Be the light in the dark that grows

Bm               D
And it comes without warning
G
A rush of blood that you can't control
Bm             D
Tryna find vindication
G
Be the light in the dark that grows

Chorus:
   Bm    D       G
It all starts today
                  Bm   D     G
I'm letting go of all my mistakes
                     Bm       D
I'm cleaning out my skeletons in the closet
G
I was scared now I'm honest
   Bm    D       G
It all starts today (Today, to-)

No more living life in cages
From my past it's time to let go
Every line on these pages
Reminds me these thoughts my own

And it comes without warning
A rush of blood that you can't control
The futures tired of waiting
Done hesitating
Time to let it go

Chorus:
It all starts today
I'm letting go of all my mistakes
I'm cleaning out my skeletons in the closet
I was scared now I'm honest
It all starts today (Today, today)

Bm                   D
Breaking free from who I was
G
Clean the slate I've had enough
  Bm               D
Remind myself that I'm the one
    G
Yeah whose got to learn to let it go, go, go
Bm                 D
Breaking free from who I was
G
Clean the slate I've had enough
  Bm               D
Remind myself that I'm the one
G
Whose got to learn to let it go

Chorus:
It all starts today
I'm letting go of all my mistakes
I'm cleaning out my skeletons in the closet
I was scared now I'm honest
It all starts today (Today, to-)
