[G]
[D] Oh
Your [G]
[Bm] thoughts become [G] your enemies
when you're locked [A] inside [G] this cage
[Bm]
Life can feel [G] dead to me
[D] and all that's [E] left [G] is rage
Regrets for all [D] the time we wasted thinking of [G] ourselves
Holding on [D] to pain you tasted living in [G] this hell
[Bm]
Don't wanna go [A] back home tonight [F#m] so I drive this road [Gm] alone
[D] Stay alive for [A] the good times, stay [D] alive to [G] the bad
[D] Stay alive for the hopes and [A] the fears and the dreams
[D] The best that we [G] ever had
I keep telling myself I [A] can take you from [D] this godforsaken [G] place
Stay [D] alive for [A] the good times, stay [D] alive to [G] the [Bm] bad
[A]
[F#m] [D] [G] Stay [Bm] alive for [A] the good times, stay [D] alive to the bad
[G] Fear
[Bm] controls [G] everything, [Bm] never lets you [A] turn [G] the page
[Bm]
We end [A] up only [G] settling [Bm] for when we both felt [G] sane
Reaching out [A] for [D] something that you can't quite hold [G] on to
Say goodbye [D] and start it over when there's nothing left for [G] you
[Bm]
Don't wanna go [D] back home tonight so I [F#m] drive this road [D] alone
Stay alive for [A] the good times, stay [D] alive [G] to the bad
Stay [D] alive for the hopes and [A] the fears and the dreams
[D] The best that we [G] ever had
I keep telling myself I [A] can take you from this [D] godforsaken [G] place
Stay [D] alive [A] for the good times, stay [D] alive [G] to the bad
[B] [D]

[Bm] [A] I [D] keep telling myself I [G] can take you from this godforsaken [D] place
Stay [G]
[D] alive for [A] the good times, stay [D] alive to the [G] [D] bad
Stay alive for the hopes and [A] the fears and the dreams
[D] The best that we [G] ever had
I keep telling myself I [A] can take you from [D] this godforsaken [G] place
Stay [D] alive for [A] the good times, stay [D] alive to [G] the bad
