D
Dear younger me
D
Where do I start
   Bm               A               G
If I could tell you everything that I have learned so far
             D
Then you could be
D
One step ahead
   Bm               A               G
Of all the painful memories still running thru my head
     A               Bm      G
I wonder how much different things would be
             D
Dear younger me,

-Instruental- D Bm A G

              D
Dear younger me
      D
I cannot decide
   Bm               A               G
Do I give some speech about how to get the most out of your life
           D
Or do I go deep
     D
And try to change
     Bm                 A                G
The choices that you’ll make cuz they’re choices that made me
A              Bm            G
Even though I love this crazy life
      A              Bm           G
Sometimes I wish it was a smoother ride
            D                 Bm A G
Dear younger me, dear younger me

-Instrumental- Em D A x2

Em                  D
If I knew then what I know now
A
Condemnation would’ve had no power
   Em                  D             A
My joy my pain would’ve never been my worth
Em                  D
If I knew then what I know now
           A
Would’ve not been hard to figure out
     G                     A 
What I would’ve changed if I had heard

D
Dear younger me
     D
It’s not your fault
Bm                         A         G
You were never meant to carry this beyond the cross
              D    Bm A G
Dear younger me

You are holy

You are righteous
          D
You are one of the redeemed
     Bm
Set apart a brand new heart
G
You are free indeed
         D
Every mountain every valley
D
Thru each heartache you will see
       Bm
Every moment brings you closer
A       G
To who you were meant to be
             D                Bm A G
Dear younger me, dear younger me

         D
You are holy
D
You are righteous
D
You are one of the redeemed

Set apart a brand new heart
G                D (on last time)
You are free indeed [x3]

Bible Verse:

Peter replied, "Repent and be baptized, 

every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness 

of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 

The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far 

off — for all whom the Lord our God will call."

—Acts 2:38
