	Intro:  D--G-A-D--G-A
              D                               G                    A    
                                                                        
                                   
Verse: Lately I've been winning battles left and right,
                   D                               G                   A
                                            
	But even winners can get wounded in the fight.
             Em                  F#m              G                     
  F#m             
	People say that I'm amazing, strong beyond my years,
	      Em                    F#m                 G                A     
                  
	But they don't see inside of me, I'm hiding all the tears.

                              D           Dmaj7         G               
      A                                             
chorus: They don't know that I go running home when I fall down.
                              D           Dmaj7                  G      
         A                       
	They don't know who picks me up when no one is around.
               Bm                       A                    G-A        
                                    
	I drop my sword and cry for just a while, 
	           Em                   F#M   G      A               
D--G-A-D--G-A                                         	'cause deep
inside this armor,   the warrior is a child.

	D                               G                  A
	Unafraid because His armor is the best.
                  D                              G                    A 
                                          
	But even soldiers need a quiet place to rest.
               Em                F#m             G                F#m   
                                         
	People say that I'm amazing, never face retreat.
                    Em                     F#m              G           
      A                    
	But they don't see the enemies that lay me at His feet.

                               D           Dmaj7         G              
       A                                                                
               
	 They don't know that I go running home when I fall down.
                               D           Dmaj7         G              
       A                                                                
  
	They don't know who picks me up when no one is around.
               Bm                        A                      G- D    
                                     
	I drop my sword and cry for just a while, 
	           Em                   F#m   G      A                 D       
                                	'cause deep inside this armor,   the
warrior is a child.

                             D           Dmaj7         G                
     A                                                                  
    
 	They don't know that I go running home when I fall down.
                            D           Dmaj7         G                 
    A                                                                   
  
	They don't know who picks me up when no one is around.
                Bm                        A                      G- D   
                                                                        
          
	I drop my sword and look up for a smile, 
	            Em                   F#m   G      A                 D
--G-A-D--G-A-D                                                          
                                                                	'cause
