Verse:              D                Dmaj7
                    I have given you a name, 
                                            B
                    One that shows you can always change,
                                             G(Barre)
                    No matter the way or mistakes you've made.
Pre-chorus:         D                                                Dmaj7
                    And sometimes consequences define your life with hardship
                                           B
                    Will goodness be the banner you raise?
                                                 G(Barre)
                    'Cause with his last breath, severus said;
                    
                    "Take it, take it."
Chorus:             D      Dmaj7  D
                    Living in disguise,
                                  Cadd9    B
                    A true wizard on the inside,
                                 D     G
                    Not afraid of what he had to do,

                    He was the bravest man I ever knew.
Post-chorus:        D    Dmaj7   D
                                 Albus Severus,
                                                          Cadd9
                    You were named for two headmasters of hogwarts,
                    B
                    One of them was a Slytherin.
                    D   G
                    And he was probably,

                    The bravest man I ever knew.
                    D  Dmaj7  
                    
                    D             Cadd9  B
                    A true wizard on the inside,
                    D      G
                    On the inside,
                                           D
                    The bravest man I ever knew.
                    Dmaj7  D             Cadd9  B
                           A true wizard on the inside,
                    D      G
                    On the inside.
Verse:              D                             Dmaj7
                    All these  things that tie us close, 
                                    B
                    To what matters most,
                                G(Barre)
                    We cannot let go.
Pre-chorus:         D                                                Dmaj7
                    And sometimes consequences define your life with hardship
                                           B
                    Will goodness be the banner you raise?
                                                 G(Barre)
                    'Cause with his last breath, severus said;
                    
                    "Take it, take it."
Chorus:             D      Dmaj7  D
                    Living in disguise,

                    A true wizard on the inside,

Post-chorus:        D                       Dmaj7    
                    Long ago I had a teacher,
                    D                                     
                    A sallow skinned Slytherin with long black hair,
                    Cadd9              B
                    I hated him and he seemed to hate me too.
                                               D    G
                    And though I branded him a coward he was in fact,

                    The bravest man I ever knew.
                    D  Dmaj7

                    On the inside,
                                           D
                    The bravest man I ever knew.
                    Dmaj7  D             Cadd9  B
                           A true wizard on the inside,

Outro:              D
                    Always, always, there's so much in one word,
                    B       G
                    Always, always.
