[Verse 1]
A#
I bury all my secrets deep
Dm
I scream out loud when I'm asleep
Cm
I smashed the mirror more than twice
D#sus2
I have no problem telling lies
A#
I drowned a bird when I was eight
Dm
I have a hard time telling love from hate
Cm
The list is long, my temper short
D#sus2
I don’t know what I'm looking for
[Chorus]
Cm D# A#
I wanna know the shape I'm in
F
The shape I’m in
Cm D# A# F D#sus2
I wanna know before I'm outta here, I'm outta here
[Verse 2]
A#
I trembled when I heard his voice
Dm
And still it sounds the loudest noise
Cm
It shakes me 'til I can't stand up
D#sus2
I tend to drink until I drop
A#
And just like him I roam these streets
Dm
I'm trying hard to tame the beast
Cm
That's in our blood for a hundred years
D#sus2
I swear I'll make it disappear
[Chorus]
Cm D# A#
I want you to know the shape I’m in
F
The shape I’m in
Cm D# A# F
I want you to know before you're outta here, you’re outta here
Cm D#
I want you to know
[Solo]

[Verse 3]
A#
I found a bird out on the street
Dm
With broken wings, it would not eat
Cm
I patched it up and took it home
D#sus2
I would not leave that bird alone
A#
And I opened up the windows wide
Dm
Until one day it flew outside
Cm
And it sang a song I've never known
D#sus2
I hope someday I'll sing my own
[Outro]
Cm D# A# F
I want you to know
