~~ The example above shows the verse, but it can be applied to every other section of the song!
~~ I would recommend muting the higher e-string if you strum the chords, this fits the song better 
   in my opinion.
~~ Tip: It also sounds nice to play a good old Cadd9 in the chorus ;)


[Intro]
Em
Em

[Verse]
Em                                        G                                   
I don't want to wait anymore I'm tired of looking for answers
D                                  Em
   Take me some place where there's music and there's laughter
Em                                                         G
   I don't know if I'm scared of dying but I'm scared of living too fast, too slow
  D                             Em
Regret, remorse, hold on, oh no I've got to go

Em                                    G
   There's no starting over, no new beginnings, time races on
D                                          Em
   And you've just gotta keep on keeping on
Em                              G
   Gotta keep on going, looking straight out on the road - can't worry 'bout
D                                             Em
   what's behind you or what's coming for you further up the road

Em                                       G
   I try not to hold on to what is gone,   I try to do right what is wrong
D                                Em         
   I try to keep on   keeping on    
G              D                  Em
   Yeah I just keep on keeping on

[Chorus]
C                G        D                 Em   
  I hear a voice calling,   calling out for me
C                     G          D             Em
  These shackles I've made in an attempt to be free
C           G       D           Em 
  Be it for reason,   be it for love
C   G     D          C G  Em   
  I won't take   the easy road

[Bridge]
Em               G      D      Em
 Oo-oo-oo-oo-hoo, oo-hoo oooh oooh, wooah
Em               G      D      Em
 Oo-oo-oo-oo-hoo, oo-hoo oooh oooh, wooah

[Verse]
Em                               G 
  I've woken up in a hotel room,   my worries as big as the moon
D                                       Em
  Having no idea who or what or where I am
Em                                   G
  Something good comes with the bad,   a song's never just sad
D                                Em
  There's hope, there's a silver lining

G            D        Em
  Show me my   silver lining
G            D        Em
  Show me my   silver lining

[Chorus]
C                G        D                 Em   
  I hear a voice calling,   calling out for me
C                     G          D             Em
  These shackles I've made in an attempt to be free
C           G       D           Em 
  Be it for reason,   be it for love
C   G     D          C G  Em   
  I won't take   the easy road

[Bridge]
  Em             G             D                         Em               
I won't take the easy road the easy road, the easy road      (oho)
  Em             G             D                         Em               
I won't take the easy road the easy road, the easy road      (oho)
Em               G      D      Em
 Oo-oo-oo-oo-hoo, oo-hoo oooh oooh, wooah
Em               G      D      Em
 Oo-oo-oo-oo-hoo, oo-hoo oooh oooh, wooah

[Outro]
G            D        Em
  Show me my   silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
G            D        Em
  Show me my   silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
G            D        Em
  Show me my   silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
G            D        Em      N.C.
  Show me my   silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
