I Am Understood Chords & Lyrics - Relient K

Capo 2

[Am]Sometimes it's embarrassing[C] to talk to y[G]ou
To h[Am]old a conversation with the o[C]nly one who s[G]ees right through
This ve[Am]rsion of myself
I try[C] to hide beh[G]ind
I'll b[Am]ury my face because my disgrace will le[C]ave me terrif[G]ied

And s[Am]ometimes I'm so th[F]ankful for[C] your loyal[G]ty
Your l[Am]ove regardless o[F]f
The mist[C]akes I make will s[G]poil me
My co[Am]nfidence is, i[F]n a sense, a g[C]ift you've given [G]me
And I'm s[Am]atisfied to r[F]ealize you're a[C]ll I'll ever ne[G]ed

[CHORUS]
You l[C]ooked into my life and never s[F]topped
And you're thinking all my t[Am]houghts
Are so simple,[G] but so beautiful
And y[C]ou recite my words right back to [F]me
Before I even s[Am]peak
You let me know[G] , I am understood

And s[Am]ometimes I s[F]pend my time
Just t[C]rying to esc[G]ape
I w[Am]ork so hard so de[F]sperately, in an a[C]ttempt to create sp[G]ace
[Am] Cause I want d[F]istance from the utmost i[C]mportant thing I k[G]now
I s[Am]ee your love, then t[F]urn my back and [C]beg for you to [G]go

[CHORUS]

*Picking chords

*[Am] *[F] *[C] *[G]
You're the only one who understands completely
*[Am] *[F] *[C] *[G]
You're the only one knows me yet still loves completely

[Am] , [F] , [C] , [G] x2

And s[Am]ometimes the pl[F]ace I'm at is [C]at a loss for w[G]ords
If I t[Am]hink of something w[F]orthy I know that i[C]ts already yo[G]urs
*[Am] *[F] *[C] *[G]
And through the times I've faded and you've outlined me again
You've j[Am]ust patiently wa[F]ited, to br[C]ing me back and t[G]hen

[CHORUS]

[C] , [F] , [G#] , [F] x2

[C] , [F] , [G#] [F] [C]
The noise has broken my defense
Let me em[G]brace salvation
[G#] Your voice has br[F]oken my def[C]ense
Let me em[G]brace salvation
