[Verse 1]
C               Am
Maybe we're the lucky ones
      G                F
Cause we can choose to turn it off
C               Am
Maybe we're the lonely ones
      G            F
Cause we decide to shield what's soft


[Verse 2]
    C
I'm sure you'll learn to
Am                  G
dance and drink and dream
               F
But you might still feel lost


[Chorus 1]
      C     Am
And I see myself
   Em     F
in you my friend
C             Am
  But I would break
      Em        F
where you would bend
C             Am
  I'm calling on what
Em    F          G
you defend and tonight
  F          C   C
I won't hold back


[Verse 3]
     C
Just don't waste all your
F       C              F
years Believing in the fear
       C                 G
You'll choke out what's alive and
            F
make What's wrong be all that's real


[Verse 4]
G
I can see you're weakened
       F
at the seams And trying to
        C
swim upstream but can't
G      F
find a way


[Verse 5]
   C            Am
So here we are again
               G
trying to hold back
            F
The tides behind our eyes
C             Am
Lucky ones trying to drink
     G                 F
from both the wells we claim
        C
are dry I guess I've found
     Am           G
some freedom in Embracing
      F
every time they pry


[Chorus 2]
      C     Am
And I see myself
   Em     F
in you my friend
C             Am
  But I would break
      Em        F
where you would bend
C             Am
  I'm calling on what
Em    F          G
you defend and tonight
  F          C   C
I won't hold back


[Verse 6]
     C
Just don't waste all your
F       C              F
years Believing in the fear
       C                 G
You'll choke out what's alive and
            F
make What's wrong be all that's real


[Verse 7]
     C
Just don't waste all your
F       C              F
years Believing in the fear
       C                 G
You'll choke out what's alive and
            F
make What's wrong be all that's
                    G
real We're both the same
            F
You're just like me


[Verse 8]
               C
And when your skin finally
F
sheds You'll find your
C             F
nerves all in shreds
              Am
The price may be to
          G
keep your heart you'll
          F   G
lose your head


[Verse 9]
