Intro: G5 A5  G5 A5  E5 F5  E5 F5  

           G5   A5 G5 A5 E5 F5 Dm(hold)
It's up to you!


Verse 1:
G5 A5
  This ain't no TV show
G5 A5
  You watch my head explode
E5 F5
   Ten thousand 
            E5 F5
hours every day
G5 A5
  No time to be afraid
G5 A5
  Chase up the 
rattle snakes
E5 F5
   Don't let your fear 
             E5  F5
control your fate


Refrain 1:
    D5                C5
The ghost of self denial
   D5                C5
It whispers from the grave
    D5               C5
The road you can't rely on
     E5                 F5
Is a risk that you must take


Chorus:
             A5
I'm running across the tracks
(And I'm never coming back)
Oh, I'm running across the tracks
(And I'm never coming back)
            C5
Pulling the blindfolds back
              F5
All we did in life
             A5
I'm running across the tracks
(And I'm never coming back)
Oh, I'm running across the tracks
(And I'm never coming back)
              C5
We're gonna escape
                       F5
this trap Gotta get a life


Verse 2:
G5  A5
  Stuck in this prison cell
G5 A5
  Just like a criminal
E5 F5
   I count the years 
             E5   F5
that went to waste
G5 A5
  If this road goes to hell
G5 A5
  I'm right back where I fell
E5 F5                        E5   F5
   Made a career from my mistakes


Refrain 2:
    D5                C5
The ghost of self denial
   D5                C5
It whispers from the grave
    D5               C5
The road you can't rely on
Could be your saving grace


(Repeat Chorus)


Bridge:
           A5
And every step that 
I aim to take
(I fall behind 
I fall behind)
          C5
And every leg that 
I have to break
        F5
(These scars are mine 
These scars are mine)
         A5
And everyday that 
I'd pray for you
(I close my eyes
I close my eyes)
               C5
At least I can say 
that we made it through
            D5
(The stars aligned 
The stars aligned)
The stars aligned
           F----- <--- Guitar Solo
The stars aligned
           A5    F5 A5
The stars aligned


Verse 3:
    F5
And words just 
can't explain 
the struggle of a
A5
dead men's fight
A dead mens fight
    F5
And silver spoons get
by the wasted mother
A5
hard earns life
A hard earns life

Verse 4:
       F5
Every step that 
I aim to take
(I fall behind
I fall behind)
          A5
And every leg that 
I have to break
(These scars are mine
These scars are mine)
         D5
And everyday that 
I'd pray for you
            F5
(I close my eyes
I close my eyes)
      A5
And I hope that
you make it through
Yeah I hope that
    G5  C5
you make through
           Am--- Am(hold)
It's up to you!


(Repeat Chorus)


Outro:
           A5
And every step that 
I aim to take
(I fall behind 
I fall behind)
          C5
And every leg that 
I have to break
        F5
(These scars are mine 
These scars are mine)
         A5
And everyday that 
I'd pray for you
(I close my eyes
I close my eyes)
               C5
At least I can say 
that we made it through
            F5
