...............................
[Verse 1]
G
When he came on a dark
I guess he didn't know
Em
Maybe that's love, or maybe that's just life
But you never came first
D Am
Me, him and her, and you in the back light
Can't imagine how it hurts
C
Tryna be the dad, like, tryna be the man, right?
Cm G
Watching us fall, watching us cry, watching us conquer
D/F# Em
Trying not to bleed, picking up the pieces left by a monster
D
So, how does it feel, giving it your all
Am
But it's only getting harder?
Push you away 'cause I don't need a father
C Cm
Please stay 'cause I really need a father...
[Pre-Chorus]
G
I remember the night that you cam?
Remember th? way that it changed
Everything, all that you said
Am
Mama was never so brave
You made a home of the place
Em
Together, you helped us escape
All of the love that you gave
All of the love you replaced
C Cm
All of the loving that I never thought I'd embrace
[Chorus]
G
It's always been you
It's only been you
Am
It's always been you
It's only been you
Em
It's always been you, it's always been you, it's always been you
C Cm
it's always been you it's always been you it's always been you it's always been you
[Verse 2]
G
So, as I've grown up
D/F# Em
See the man I am, see the man he his, see the man I love
D Am
Based on one who doesn't even know he raised me up
C
I hope I can show, shot to the God, drenched in the flood
Cm
When all is said and done
G
You'll always have my love
D/F# Em
And I know I'm not a part of you
D
But what's life...
Am
Your love can't wait, it's deeper in these veins
C
Than blood could ever stain
Cm
And that's where you remain
[Pre-Chorus]
G
I remember the night that you cam?
Remember th? way that it changed
Everything, all that you said
Am
Mama was never so brave
You made a home of the place
Em
Together, you helped us escape
All of the love that you gave
All of the love you replaced
C Cm
All of the loving that I never thought I'd embrace
[Chorus]
G
It's always been you
It's only been you
Am
It's always been you
It's only been you
Em
It's always been you, it's always been you, it's always been you
C Cm G
it's always been you it's always been you it's always been you it's always been you
[Bridge]
Am
Whenever I'm lost, whenever I'm down and I'm kneeling
Em
Whenever I'm crying, whenever I'm broke and on my knees, and
C
Whenever I'm scared, whenever I'm hurt and I'm bleeding
Cm
It's always been you, it's always been you, it's always been you
G Am
..Whenever I'm frightened, whenever I'm a fool ... and I'm kneeling
Em
Whenever the night takes me back and I'm weeping
C
Whenever I'm cross, it's too much with the demons
Cm
It's always been you, it's always been you, it's always been you
