[Verse 1]
                   C 
When he came on a dark

I guess he didn't know
                                    Gm  
Maybe that's love, or maybe that's just life
 
But you never came first
             C                   Gm
Me, him and her, and you in the back light

Can't imagine how it hurts
                                      G 
Tryna be the dad, like, tryna be the man, right?
             Gm                                 C 
Watching us fall, watching us cry, watching us conquer
                                     C/Fm             Gm
Trying not to bleed, picking up the pieces left by a monster
                                      C
So, how does it feel, giving it your all
                       Gm
But it's only getting harder?
                
Push you away 'cause I don't need a father
                                     G    Gm
Please stay 'cause I really need a father...

[Pre-Chorus]
                C 
I remember the night that you cam?

Remember th? way that it changed
                  
Everything, all that you said
Gm
Mama was never so brave

You made a home of the place
                          Gm                                          
Together, you helped us escape

All of the love that you gave

All of the love you replaced
             G                                Gm  
All of the loving that I never thought I'd embrace

[Chorus]
                  C 
It's always been you
              
It's only been you
                 Gm 
It's always been you
      
It's only been you
                  Gm                                          
It's always been you, it's always been you, it's always been you
       G                                        Gm
it's always been you it's always been you it's always been you it's always been you

[Verse 2]
                  C
So, as I've grown up
                                 C/Fm                Gm   
See the man I am, see the man he his, see the man I love
                                C               Gm           
Based on one who doesn't even know he raised me up
                                                      G
I hope I can show, shot to the God, drenched in the flood
                      Gm
When all is said and done
        C      
You'll always have my love
      C/Fm            Gm 
And I know I'm not a part of you
                 C 
But what's life...
                 Gm          
Your love can't wait, it's deeper in these veins
                        G
Than blood could ever stain
                       Gm
And that's where you remain

[Pre-Chorus]
                C 
I remember the night that you cam?

Remember th? way that it changed
                  
Everything, all that you said
Gm
Mama was never so brave

You made a home of the place
                          Gm                                          
Together, you helped us escape

All of the love that you gave

All of the love you replaced
             G                                Gm  
All of the loving that I never thought I'd embrace

[Chorus]
                  C 
It's always been you
              
It's only been you
                 Gm 
It's always been you
      
It's only been you
                  Gm                                          
It's always been you, it's always been you, it's always been you
       G                                        Gm                               C
it's always been you it's always been you it's always been you it's always been you

[Bridge]
                                               Gm  
Whenever I'm lost, whenever I'm down and I'm kneeling
                                                   Gm
Whenever I'm crying, whenever I'm broke and on my knees, and
                                                 G
Whenever I'm scared, whenever I'm hurt and I'm bleeding
                            Gm
It's always been you, it's always been you, it's always been you
C                                                            Gm
..Whenever I'm frightened, whenever I'm a fool ... and I'm kneeling
                                            Gm
Whenever the night takes me back and I'm weeping
                                             G
Whenever I'm cross, it's too much with the demons
                            Gm       
It's always been you, it's always been you, it's always been you
