Verse:
G       D          Em         C

Just a sign on the door with a P.S. attached
      G           D            Em            C
"I've gone for forgiveness, so take what you need
          G          D          Em           D
There's a key in the flowerpot, down by your things"

Verse:
G            D             Em          C
Twelve years old, with his head in his hands
         G         D        Em             D
And he's trying to estimate where he might land
     G        D          Em         C
It's hard to imagine why everything ends
         G         D         Em          D
But it's harder to figure out where to begin

Chorus:
            C       G   D
'Cause it's hard to be alive
         C       G   D
Oh, it's hard to be alive
     C             G         Em          D
It's rare and it's wonderful at the same time
          C       G   D
It's just hard to be alive
         C              G         Em          D
Oh, it's weird and it's wonderful at the same time
         C       G   D            C
Oh, it's hard to be alive____________
