Stay Alive - Alternate Tuning chords by Jose Gonzalez

"Stay Alive" by Jose Gonzalez

Note on Tuning:
I arranged this song in a modified version of open D tuning because it sounds great for just a solo guitar!
Basically it is DADGAD but with the g-string tuned up to an A, thereby making it DADAAD.
Hope you enjoy, God bless.

~Tuning: DADAAD
~Capo on 4th fret

VERSE:

F#                   C#        D#m
There's a rhythm in rush these days
           D#m                      C#            B
Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade
F#                      C#         D#m
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
      D#m                      C#         B
In a world gone shallow, in a world gone lean


F#                         C#          D#m
Sometimes there's things a man cannot know
D#m                        C#           B
Gears won't turn and the leaves won't grow
         F#                   C#    D#m
There's no place to run and no gasoline
D#m                        C#           B
Engine won't turn and the train won't leave
D#m                         C#          B
Engines won't turn and the train won't leave



F#       C#       D#m      B
I will stay with you tonight
C#                      D#m       B
Hold you close 'til the morning light
         F#     C#      D#m      B
In the morning watch a new day rise
      C#           D#m        B
We'll do whatever just to stay alive
       C#          D#m        B
We'll do whatever just to stay alive


F#        C#                     D#m
Well the way I feel is the way I write
   C#                            D#m      B
It isn't like the thoughts of the man who lies
   F#                     C#      D#m
There is a truth and it's on our side

D#m              C#        B
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
C#                       D#m        B
Look into the sun as the new day?s rise


    F#      C#      D#m    B
And I will wait for you tonight
 D#m                          C#       B
You're here forever and you're by my side
    F#      C#     D#m     B
I've been waiting all my life
    C#                     D#m      B
To feel your heart as it's keeping time
       C#                 D#m    B
We'll do whatever just to stay alive

   F#            C#         B
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
   F#            C#         B
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
   F#            C#         B
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
   F#            C#         B
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
   F#            C#         B
Look into the sun as the new day?s rise


F#                    C#       D#m
There's a rhythm in rush these days
           D#m                       C#           B
Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade
F#                     C#           D#m
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
      D#m                      C#          B
In a world gone shallow, in a world gone lean


     F#                        C#    D#m
But there is a truth and it's on our side
D#m              C#       B
Dawn is coming open your eyes
 D#m                   C#         B
Look into the sun as a new day?s rise
