[Verse]
Bm A G A
Nobody listened, so she screamed out loud
Bm A G A
She broke the dishes…when he tried to put his hand on her
Bm A
She took the car keys, went to the police
G A
Now he’s sitting in a jail for life
Bm A G A
‘Cause somebody listened, somebody listened
[Chorus]
Bm A
Fortune favors the bold
G A
The one who’s not looking for gold
Bm
Been afraid of the night
A
Never runs from a fight
G A
Takes the longest road
Bm A
Music favors the heart
G A
Lonely notes in the dark
Bm
Only knows how to play
A
All the sadness away
G A
Makes a flame from a spark
[Post-Chorus]
Bm A G A
..Fortune favors the bold
Bm A G A
..Fortune favors the bold
[Verse]
Bm A G A
Nobody listened, it was always quiet
Bm A G A
Took pills from the cabinet, staying up all night
Bm A
But he had one friend always checking in
G A
And he probably saved his life
Bm A
‘Cause he paid attention
G A
He paid attention
[Chorus]
Bm A
Fortune favors the bold
G A
The one who’s not looking for gold
Bm
Been afraid of the night
A
Never runs from a fight
G A
Takes the longest road
Bm A
Music favors the heart
G A
Lonely notes in the dark
Bm
Only knows how to play
A
All the sadness away
G A
Makes a flame from a spark
[Bridge]
Bm A G
Yeah, okay, his windowpane seen way too many rainy days
A Bm
In a broken home like outcasts and that
A
Miss Jackson video
G A
it’s water that’s falling from the ceiling, somebody call someone to fix it
Bm A
Spilling blood in the water, yeah, intentions are cryptic
G A
..And the funds is fundamental
Bm A
but see that fades away and when it’s gone we’re left with spirit
G A
Makes me wonder what it really costs to pay attention
Bm A G
..Look, the pendulum swinging back and forth like Badminton
A Bm A
And snipping away at that venomous snake head, we call that the industry
G A
I been praying, smoking, tryna guard my energy
Bm A
Remaining hopeful, I’m just tryna maintain innocence
G A
Maintain sanity while I’m setting the table up for my lineage
Bm A
And they can tell the greatest story that was ever told
G A
‘Bout how the fortune favors the bold, yeah
[Chorus]
Bm A
Fortune favors the bold
G A
The one who’s not looking for gold
Bm
Been afraid of the night
A
Never runs from a fight
G A
Takes the longest road
Bm A
Music favors the heart
G A
Lonely notes in the dark
Bm
Only knows how to play
A
All the sadness away
G A
Makes a flame from a spark
[Post-Chorus]
Bm A G A
..Fortune favors the bold
Bm A G A
..Fortune favors the bold
