[Intro]
F           F
 Dear insecurity

[Chorus]
                            Bb
​When you gonna take your hands off me?
                       Dm
​When you ever gonna let me be
C                    F
​Proud of who I am?
            F
​Oh insecurity
                            Bb
​When you gonna take your hands off me?
                       Dm
​When you ever gonna let me be
C
​Just the way I am?
F
Dear insecurity

[Verse 1]
F
I hate the way you make me feel
  Bb
I hate the things you make me think
               Dm
​You make me sick to my stomach
     C                  F
​I wish that I wasn't me
​Some days,
     F
when I wake up I see myself in the mirror
  Bb
I feel like what shouldn't be couldn't be clearer
      Dm
​My nose to my clothes,
        C
from my chin to my skin
     F
I'll never be good enough ever again
    F
For you, so I changed for you
                  Bb
Then I'd died for you,
then you made me blue
             Dm               C
​If I were you, I'd hate me too
       F
​But I already feel like you do
Because​,
    F
you tell me I'm not worth shit
And the bad luck's on purpose
Bb
  And if I'm sad then I deserve it
    Dm
But underneath the surface
       C
I'm hurting, searching and learning
F
 ​My imperfections make me perfect
           F
Dear insecurity

[Chorus]
                            Bb
​When you gonna take your hands off me?
                       Dm
​When you ever gonna let me be
C                    F
​Proud of who I am?
            F
​Oh insecurity
                            Bb
​When you gonna take your hands off me?
                       Dm
​When you ever gonna let me be
C                    F
​Just the way I am?
           F
Dear insecurity

[Verse 2]
                                Bb
I ​feel like I'm dying on the inside
​But I smile it off
      Dm
I'm a mess, I'm depressed,
     C                         F
I'm alone and it's all my fault
         F
​Did I do something wrong? This feeling's unfair
          Bb
​You're making me anxious but why the fuck do I care?
  Dm                           C
I overthink everything til' my thoughts are impaired
       F
I hate everything about me I think I need some air
F
 Drink some water, take a breath
       Bb
Take a moment to be thankful for the reasons that you're
blessed
     Dm                             C
It's not about mistakes you made or failures that you had
        F
​It's all about the memories and little things you have
     F
Your freckles and flaws to your body and bruises
        Bb
​Your scars to your beautiful ​birth marks,
​the truth is
         Dm
​We're one in the same
            C
So play the cards that your dealt
  F
Nobody likes you more than when you're being yourself
           F
Dear insecurity

[Chorus]
                            Bb
​When you gonna take your hands off me?
                       Dm
​When you ever gonna let me be
C                    F
​Proud of who I am?
            F
​Oh insecurity
                            Bb
​When you gonna take your hands off me?
                       Dm
​When you ever gonna let me be
C                    F
​Just the way I am?
Dear insecurity

[Bridge]

I am

​Proud of the person who I am
                          F
Nobody's gon' tell me who I am
             C
Or who I can be
Gm
I am
                       Dm

​Proud of who I am?
            F
​Oh insecurity
                               Bb
It's time I make you take your hands off me
                       Dm
Set me free, I'm gonna let you see
C                    Gm11
I'm proud of who I am
                 Bb
