Intro: FF F FF Bb majorBb FF F FF Bb majorBb FF F
FF Bb majorBb FF
I dream the most when I'm awake I've found
DmDm C majorC FF Bb majorBb FF
lofty expectations keep my feet upon the ground
C majorC FF
life's too short for settling
FF Bb majorBb FF
The road less traveled is the one I tend to take
DmDm C majorC FF Bb majorBb FF
relishing the challenges as proof that I'm awake
C majorC FF
life's too short for settling
Bb majorBb
So I take the journey day by day
C majorC
giving everything with no restraint
DmDm
but the fear of failure remains inside
G minorGm
the pain reminds me I'm alive
Bb majorBb C majorC FF
I'm happiest when I am struggling
FF Bb majorBb FF
I've been warned but I will not succumb
DmDm C majorC FF Bb majorBb FF
to preparing for a future I'm not sure will ever come
C majorC FF
lifes too short for hedging bets
FF Bb majorBb FF
Passion's all I've left in my possession
DmDm C majorC FF Bb majorBb FF
so I'll keep all the faith I have in rhymes and chord progressions
C majorC FF
lifes too short for settling
Bb majorBb
so I take the journey day by day
C majorC
giving everything with no restraint
DmDm
but the fear of failure remains inside
G minorGm
the pain reminds me I'm alive
Bb majorBb
and its all I've known, its all that's real
C majorC
it's the only thing I'll ever feel
DmDm
the only regret I'll admit
G minorGm
is I've only got one life to give
Bb majorBb C majorC FF
I'm happiest when I am struggling
