C5                                G5
You say life is a dream where we can't say what we mean
A5              G5              F5
Maybe just some roadside scene that we're driving past
C5                                      G5
There's no telling where we'll be in a day or in a week
C5              G5                 F5
And there's no promises of peace or of happiness


C5                             G5
Well is this why you cling to every little thing
A5                G5                 F5
And polverize and derrange all your senses
      C5                         G5
Maybe life is a song but you're scared to song along
C5         G5    F5
Until the very ending


G5        A5          G5           F5                C5
Oh, it's time to let go of everything we used to know
A5         G5                    F5
Ideas that strengthen who we've been
A5               G5               F5             C5
It's time to cut ties that won't ever free our minds
A5              G5                         F5
From the chains and shackles that they're in


G5                        C5
Oh, tell me what good is saying that you're free
      G5
In a dark and storming sea
A5                     G5               F5
You're chained to your history, you're surely sinking fast
C5                              G5
You say that you know that the good Lord's in control
C5                    G5                   F5
He's gonna bless and keep your tired and oh so restless soul
           C5                         G5
But at the end of the day when every price has been paid
A5                        G5             F5
You're gonna rise and sit beside him on some old seat of gold
    C5                                   G5
And won't you tell me why you live like you're afraid to die
C5               G5                F5
You'll die like you're afraid to go


G5        A5          G5           F5                C5
Oh, it's time to let go of everything we used to know
A5              G5                F5
Ideas that strengthen who we've been
A5               G5               F5             C5
It's time to cut ties that won't ever free our minds
A5                   G5                    F5
From the chains and shackles that they're in
A5                  G5                     F5
From the chains and shackles that they're in

     C5                                G5
Well life is a dream 'cause we're all walking in our sleep
A5               G5                   F5         
You could see us stand in lines like we're dead upon our feet
       C5                                    G5
And we build our house of cards and then we wait for it to fall
C5                  G5                    F5           C5
Always forget how strange it is just to be alive at all
