Verse 1:
        D
  Sh-sh-shiver and put your hand in the river

  Set the bottle afloat
                    G
  Send the future a note
                      D
  Tell yourself to be bold
                      A
  Tell yourself to be bold
                        G
  'Cause it's gonna get dark
                        A
  And you're gonna lose sight
                    D
  But the future is bright

  For those who don't lose heart



Pre-Chorus 1:
                      D                          G
  So we might as well start 'cause we're falling apart
                       D
  Yeah, we're falling apart

  I'm a rose in a jar

  I'm a rose in a jar



Chorus:
 G
  I-I-I

  Want to be alive
             E
  While I am alive

  While I am alive
      G
  Oh, I-I

  Want to feel the light
           E
  Color in my eyes
     Bb                     A                         D G D
  So I can see clearly that this is all really a fight
 A                       D G D A
  Oh, a fight for my life



Verse 2:
  D
  River
                         A
  Like a rippling mirror
                 D                          G
  Is the child inside or did he run for his life
                     D
  Did he run for his life when times were tough
                          G
  When the light was lost?



Pre-Chorus 2:
                   Em                     A7
  These nights are long but I'm holding on



Chorus:
 G
  I-I-I

  Want to be alive
             E
  While I am alive

  While I am alive (I'm a rose in a jar, I'm a rose in a jar)
      G
  Oh, I-I

  Want to feel the light
           E
  Color in my eyes
     Bb                     A                         D G
  So I can see clearly that this is all really a fight
                 D  G
  A fight to survive
                  D   G
  It's clearly a fight
                 D
  A fight for my life


Bridge:
                        Em
  Oh, so fight for your life

  Fight to the death
              A
  Fight to survive
                                          G
  Fight for the rest of the time you have left on this planet

  No need to panic
  A
  Fight for the moment
