Verse 1: Olly Alexander:
B                        F#m
You stumble through your days
         A                   F#m              B
Got your head hung low, your skies a shade of grey
                   F#m
Like a zombie in a maze
       A                  F#m
You're asleep inside, but you can shake awake

Pre-Chorus 1: Olly Alexander:
C#m
'Cause you're just a dead man walking
B
Thinking that's your only option
A
But you can flip the switch and brighten up your darkest day
C#m
Sun is up and the color's blinding
B
Take the world and redefine it
A
Leave behind your narrow mind

You'll never be the same


Chorus: Olly Alexander:
      B           F#m
Come alive, come alive
       A                        E
Go and light your light, let it burn so bright
         B         F#m
Reaching up to the sky
         A                 E
And it's open wide, you're electrified
         B
When the world becomes a fantasy
    F#m
And you're more than you could ever be
       A                                   E
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
        B
And you know you can't go back again
       F#m
To the world that you were living in
       A                                   B
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open

So, come alive


Verse 2: Jess Glynne:
       B
Oh ah, yeah
                 F#m
I see it in your eyes
    A                         G#m               B
You believe that lie that you need to hide your face

Afraid to step outside
       F#m
So you lock the door, but don't you stay that way


Pre-Chorus 2: Jess Glynne:
C#m
No more living in those shadows
B
You and me, we know how that goes
       A
'Cause once you see it all, you'll never, never be the same
C#m
Little bit of lightnin' striking
B
Bottle up to keep on shining
A
'Cause you can prove there's more to you

You cannot be afraid


Chorus: Olly Alexander & Jess Glynne:
      B           F#m
Come alive, come alive
       A                        E
Go and light your light, let it burn so bright
         B         F#m
Reaching up to the sky
         A                 E
And it's open wide, you're electrified
         B
When the world becomes a fantasy
    F#m
And you're more than you could ever be
       A                                   E
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
        B
And you know you can't go back again
       F#m
To the world that you were living in
       A                                   B
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open

So, come alive
