To Be Alive by Brother and Bones

[Intro/Verse]
|C#m           | C#m          |E              | E             |

          C#m
Take your chances
Past forgiveness
Past the old days drink to new
            E
Drown your sorrows until they learn to swim

           C#m
Start the engine
Stop your caring
Get your bearings make your move
             E
Until those old deaf ears, oh how they'll fall on you

          C#m
See, the problem
Is the blindness
That you carry like a cross and
            E
The solution is the darkness that you're in

         C#m
Time to focus
Time to realise
Your heart might be the boss
         E
But your head will stop the sides from caving in

[Pre-Chorus]
A                                                       E
Now you're a ghost in this town and still so hard on the eyes

[Chords]
       C#m             A        E
Saying this is what it is to be alive
F#                                           A  C#m
Guess all the secrets you're bound to on the inside
            B
Are between you and the night




       C#m
I knew you once
and your patience
Now its you that knows it all
             E
Hope you're everything you couldn't wait to be

                  C#m
I guess half of somethings better than
A whole lot of nothing that may be
               E
But when the lightening comes why stand beneath the trees

[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]

[Outro]
| C#m         | E         D# | C#m        | E        D# | C#m         | E         | E        | E
Oh why do I do..
Oh why do I do..
Oh why do I do what I do to you
