Verse
F Am
When I was nine years old, I knew
Dm7 C
I had a secret that I never wanted to tell
F Am
And by 12 years old, it grew
Dm7 F
I prayed to God and asked him, please don't send me to Hell
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm7 Dm7 C
So I tried to fit in the mold that I was given, oh
Gm7 Dm7 C
I put on a dress, sat in the front pew and listened
And I listened
[Chorus]
A# C
All I ever wanted
Is to fall in love
Dm
Like everyone else
F
And not hate myself
A# C
All I ever wanted
Is to fall in love
Dm
Like everyone else
F
And not hate myself
A#
All I ever
C
All, all I ever
Dm F
All, all I ever wanted
[Verse 2]
Am
When I was 16, I was lost
Dm7 C
Swore I liked this boy, but I just wanted his girlfriend
F Am
And at 18, I begged God
Dm7 Csus4 C
To make me straight but all I ever heard back was silence
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm7 Dm7 C
So I tried to fit in the mold that I was given, oh
Gm7 Dm7 C
I put on a dress, sat in the front pew and listened
And I listened
[Chorus]
A# C
All I ever wanted
Is to fall in love
Dm
Like everyone else
F
And not hate myself
A# C
All I ever wanted
Is to fall in love
Dm
Like everyone else
F
And not hate myself
A#
All I ever
C
All, all I ever
Dm F
All, all I ever wanted
[Verse 3]
Gm Am
G year ago, I was still crying every night
Gm Am
Asking God to take away these feelings I can't fight
Gm Am
And then I felt all my shame wash away
Gm C
As I heard God say, "I made you to love this way"
[Chorus]
A# C
All I ever wanted
Is to fall in love
Dm
Like everyone else
F
And not hate myself
A# C
All I ever wanted
Is to fall in love
Dm
Like everyone else
F
And not hate myself
A#
All I ever
C
All, all I ever
Dm F
All, all I ever wanted
A#
All I ever
C
All, all I ever
Dm F
All, all I ever wanted
