Intro
G#m B F# C#
G#m B F# C# B
[Verse 1]
F#
I bury all my secrets deep
A#m
I scream out loud when I'm asleep
G#m
I smashed the mirror more than twice
Bsus2
I have no problem telling lies
F#
I drowned a bird when I was eight
A#m
I have a hard time telling love from hate
G#m
The list is long, my temper short
Bsus2
I don’t know what I'm looking for
[Chorus]
G#m B F#
I wanna know the shape I'm in
C#
The shape I’m in
G#m B F# C# Bsus2
I wanna know before I'm outta here, I'm outta here
[Verse 2]
F#
I trembled when I heard his voice
A#m
And still it sounds the loudest noise
G#m
It shakes me 'til I can't stand up
Bsus2
I tend to drink until I drop
F#
And just like him I roam these streets
A#m
I'm trying hard to tame the beast
G#m
That's in our blood for a hundred years
Bsus2
I swear I'll make it disappear
[Chorus]
G#m B F#
I want you to know the shape I’m in
C#
The shape I’m in
G#m B F# C#
I want you to know before you're outta here, you’re outta here
G#m B
I want you to know
[Solo]
G#m F#m7 G#m B
[Verse 3]
F#
I found a bird out on the street
A#m
With broken wings, it would not eat
G#m
I patched it up and took it home
Bsus2
I would not leave that bird alone
F#
And I opened up the windows wide
A#m
Until one day it flew outside
G#m
And it sang a song I've never known
Bsus2
I hope someday I'll sing my own
[Outro]
G#m B F# C#
I want you to know
(Repeat and fade)
