My Once Upon a Time

[Primeira Parte]

E
Here you are alone, and you deserve it
E
Your friends have turned to stone
E           Em
And that’s on you
Em           E               Em
You had a cause to serve but did you serve it?
Em              C                 D
Or did you see yourself in a way that wasn’t true?
Em
Why tell all those lies?
Em         C
You feel unworthy
C                  D         Em
Like there isn’t solid ground for you to stand
Em                            C
But a stack of lies is not a firm foundation
C           D                C
You cannot build a castle on a mountain made of sand

Make sure the story that they write

This time
