[Verse 1]
(Plucking)
D                               B
It's four AM, I'm waking up to your perfume 
                   C#
Don't get up, I'll get through on my own 
    B
I don't know if I'm home 
         D
Or if I lost the way into your room 
    B
I'm spiraling into my doom 
     C#                            B
I'm feeling half alive but I know one day 
             (strum)C#
You and I will be free, 


[Chorus]
  B                               D
To live and die by our own rules, Free...
A
Despite the fact that men are fools. 
 D          B(A)                    D(F#)
I'm almost alive, and I need you to try 
E
And save me. 
      D                A
It's okay that we're dying, 
                 D(F#)    C#       B-C#
But I need to survive tonight, tonight. 

Pluck: D B C# B


[Verse 2]
        D   
Well excuse me while I get killed softly, 
B                                  C#
Heart slows down and I can hardly tell you I'm okay 
 B
At least 'til yesterday, 
               D
You know you got me off my highest guard, 
 B
Believe me when I say it's hard. 
 C# 
We'll get through this tonight 
            B                         C#
And I know one day you and I will be free 


[Chorus]
  B                               D
To live and die by our own rules, Free...
A
Despite the fact that men are fools. 
 D          B(A)                    D(F#)
I'm almost alive, and I need you to try 
E
And save me. 
      D                A
It's okay that we're dying, 
                 D(F#)  C#      B
But I need to survive tonight, tonight. 


[BRIDGE] PART 1: (Shots)
          C#            D
  And you touch my hand ever so slightly 
                        C#
(Girl we're not ready for this yet) 
                         D
And the deadly look she cast upon me 

I won't regret, I won't regret 
C#        D       C#        D
  I won't regret.   I won't regret... 


[BRIDGE] PART 2:
    D                 A
And I was trying to disappear, 
                         B
But you got me wrapped around you 

I can hardly breathe without you 
D                 A
I was trying to disappear 
                       B
But I got lost in your eyes now, 

You brought me down to size now. 


[CHORUS:] (Plucking)
D          B(A)                    D(F#)
I'm almost alive, and I need you to try 
E
And save me. 
(strum)D                A
It's okay that we're dying, 
                 D(F#)          C#
But I need to survive tonight, tonight, tonight..


[CHORUS:] (strumming)
D          B(A)                    D(F#)
I'm almost alive, and I need you to try 
E
And save me. 
      D                A
It's okay that we're dying, 
                 D(F#)  C#      B
But I need to survive tonight, tonight. 
                 D(F#)  C#      B        D
But I need to survive tonight, tonight. 


Enjoy!
