Verse 1:
C majorC
I made it out of the maze
C majorC
cleared the smoke and the mirrors away
C majorC DmDm
All that remains is the honest truth
DmDm
but it's the same mistake
DmDm
I made last week
C majorC
I fell back in that trap
C majorC
Every breath I breathe
C majorC
barely makes it past my teeth
DmDm
'cause these same vises occupy my mind
DmDm
I opened up the cage to find
DmDm
that the beast locked inside
C majorC
didn't wanna to be saved
Bridge:
G+G FF C majorC
Panic makes all my decisions for me
G+G FF G+G
No rational thought just a quick jerk of the knee
Chorus:
C majorC DmDm
I am alive
FF C majorC
Despite the pain and strife
G+G A minorAm
My salvation lies in every note
FF G+G
Sent from my heart straight to my throat
C majorC DmDm
I bleed for my anger
FF C majorC
I hold onto my youth
FF C majorC
till my hands shake from this white knuckle grip
Verse 2:
C majorC
But I've got a gold medal in failure
C majorC
I climb up to the highest block
DmDm
I felt the cold down my spine from their empty accolades
DmDm
My passion becomes comatose
DmDm
But like these notes these problem won't
C majorC
resolve themselves
Bridge:
G+G FF C majorC
Well Panic makes all my decisions for me
G+G FF G+G
No rational thought just a quick jerk of the knee
Chorus:
C majorC DmDm
I am alive
FF C majorC
Despite the pain and strife
G+G A minorAm
My salvation lies in every note
FF G+G
Sent from my heart straight to my throat
C majorC DmDm
I bleed for my anger
FF C majorC
I hold onto my youth
FF C majorC
till my hands shake from this white knuckle grip
Verse 3:
C majorC
And my body is sick of this thinking
C majorC
My Body is sick of the drinking
DmDm
Everybody knows what I'm thinking
C majorC
Everybody but me (x2)
A minorAm
and my mind weak from this sickness
G+G
Head to toe engulfed in the weakness
FF
At least I know that I still have feeling
Chorus:
C majorC DmDm
I am alive
FF C majorC
Despite the pain and strife
G+G A minorAm
My salvation lies in every note
FF G+G
Sent from my heart straight to my throat
C majorC DmDm
I bleed for my anger
FF C majorC
I hold onto my youth
FF C majorC
