Intro: / C - - - / Am - - - / Em - - - / - - - - / x2
C Am Em (2)
We won't get far
C Am Em (2)
Flying in circles inside a jar
C Am Em (2)
‘cause the air we breathe
C Am Em (2)
Is thinning with the words that we speak
F (2) C (2)
That we speak, you and me
F (2) C Em F (4)
That we speak, you and me
/ C - - - / Am - - - / Em - - - / - - - -
C Am Em (2)
You're on the floor
C Am Em (2)
Fearful of what's outside your door
C Am Em (2)
But the codes and keys
C Am Em (2)
They can protect you from the pangs of jealousy
F (2) C (2)
And when you scream, love you see
F (2) C Em
Like a child, throwing stones at the sky
F (2) C (2)
When they fall back to earth, as minor chords of major works
F (2) C Em F (8)
Separate rooms of single life, we are one, we are alive
C Am Em (2)
We are alive
C Am Em (2)
We are alive
C Am Em (2)
We are alive
C Am Em (hold)
We are alive
