INTRO: D MajorD
E MajorE
Never in all of my life
D MajorD
Have I seen eyes as empty as these streets of my city
D MajorD
on a Saturday night,
D MajorD
all the green of your eyes says "Go, leave it all behind."
E MajorE
But I don't need to be reminded a change is gonna come.
E MajorE
I can feel it on the tip of your tongue.
A augmentedA
And I feel alive, feel alive, feel alive.
E MajorE
We met up once we'd settled the sun
AbmAbm
Between the heat and the work week
D MajorD
The fear is we could use some sleep
E MajorE
but sleep to a superfluous man means better use for beds
D MajorD
and I'll bet I'm coming home alone tonight.
E MajorE
I don't need to be reminded this is how it was.
E MajorE
I moved on, I passed a billboard down my block
E MajorE
that asks if I've had enough, and aloud I say "I've had too much"
E MajorE
when the truth is, I'm just getting started.
A augmentedA
Now all the barlights are blinking in time
D*
to Mexican music, it's taunting the pavement
D MajorD
And I feel alive, feel alive, feel alive.
E MajorE
One of us sings, and one of us drinks,
A augmentedA
and one of us has nothing at all.
D MajorD
So he calls us all sheep
A augmentedA
I'm the Little Bo Peep of the bunch.
(I take their tales and I'm ready to go)
E MajorE
Then he swears he's gotta take this call
D MajorD
Man, I'm scared he's gonna leave us too soon.
D MajorD
We were the get rich quick kids,
E MajorE
We never got it right
E MajorE
So we settled for the center in town
E MajorE
Where all the rich white kids is out looking for a fight
E MajorE
got the blond one staring me down.
E MajorE
and I really wanna take a swing
D MajorD
I can't help but remember James Dean
E MajorE
See we are part of the few who agree
D MajorD
that hey, he lived life fast
E MajorE
but he died.
he died.
he died.
A augmentedA
Me, I'm gonna live forever.
A augmentedA
(And I feel alive, feel alive, feel alive)
A augmentedA
Now all the barlights are blinking in time
A augmentedA
to Mexican music, it's taunting the pavement
and for the first time,
D MajorD
in a long time,
A augmentedA
I feel alive.
