[Verse]
C G
When you were born you were not alone
F
Nothing was carved into the stone quite yet, but don't forget
C G C
You heard someone say it won't get better than this
C G
That was the sound of your father
G F
As he held you up to your mother
F
No one will ever know,
C G C
a love a pure as the one that you felt right then
C G Dm
They held you up, they held you up
C G
And everybody else they fell to the wayside
C
This is the start the beginning
G
The prologue to the tale that you're spinning
Dm C G
A million synonyms will never come close to describe the feeling
F F F C C C G G G
Don't ever leave, cause if you do dear
Am F
I guarantee that you'll regret the day you did
C
and you'll miss all the simple things
G
And you'll see everything you've ever loved
Am
start fading till there's nothing left oh
[Chorus]
Am C G F Am
And I believe that every broken bone is meant to be
Am C G
And when it heals it will be stronger than it was before
Am C G F Am
And I see, the things that I pretend that I don't see
Am C G
And I keep them in my head love
If only for memories
[Break]

[Verse]
C G
So now you're young and you feel alone
F
Despite friends family and all the good things now surrounding you
C G C
You can't help thinking that there's gotta be some more to do
C G
When all the things that you cherish
G F
Turn into burdens and there is
F
No other path to take,
C G C
you know what you've got to do but you don't know how
C G Dm
They hold you back they hold you down
C G
And you're gonna feel bad but you know that you've gotta get out
C
This is your pain your dilemma
G
Do you stay in the town where they raised ya
Dm C G
Or will you sail away, pull the anchor and go headed for the come-what-may?
F F F C C C G G G
You have to leave, cause if you don't dear
Am F
you'll never see the things you read about in books
C
you saw the films and you were hooked
G
but everything you want won't come to you
Am
you realize now that you've gotta go see this through
[Chorus]
Am C G F Am
And I believe that every broken bone is meant to be
Am C G
And when it heals it will be stronger than it was before
Am C G F Am
And I see, the things that I pretend that I don't see
Am C G
And I keep them in my head love
If only for memories

[Verse]
C G
So now you're old raising your own
F
Two souls to make yourself a home, you finally settled down
C G C
you've seen the world but your heart never left this town
C G
They have the eyes of their mother
G F
The kind of crooked teeth of their father
F
No one will ever know
C G C
A love as pure as the one that you feel for them
C G Dm
You'll hold them up you'll hold them up
C G
And everybody else will fall to the wayside
C
There is no end no beginning
G
On this merry-go-round we call living
Dm C G
Some day you will return, every single ounce of the love you were given
F F F C C C G G G
Someday they'll go, and when they leave home
Am F
you will be grateful for the lesson that you learned
C
you had to travel half the world
G
to realize what you knew all along
Am
that everything will end up where it belongs
[Chorus]
Am C G F Am
And I believe that every broken bone is meant to be
Am C G
And when it heals it will be stronger than it was before
Am C G F Am
And I see, the things that I pretend that I don't see
Am C G
And I keep them in my head love
If only for memories
