(verse 1)
      E5                         C#5
It's four AM, I'm waking up to your perfume
                    B5
Don't get up, I'll get through on my own
    A5
I don't know if I'm home
          E5
Or if I lost the way into your room
      C#5
I'm spiraling into my doom
      B5                            A5
I'm feeling half alive but I know one day
                   B5
You and I will be free,
     C#5
To live and die by our own rules,
 E5
Free..
   A5
Despite the fact that men are fools.

(chorus)
 E5           A5                       C#5
I'm almost alive, and I need you to try
     B5
And save me.
      E5                A5
It's okay that we're dying,
                C#5       B5        A5
But I need to survive tonight, tonight.

(verse 2)

( E5  C#5 B5 A5 )

        E5
Well excuse me while I get killed softly,
 C#5                                B5
Heart slows down and I can hardly tell you I'm okay
    A5
At least 'til yesterday,
              E5
You know you caught me off my highest guard,
  C#5
Believe me when I say it's hard.
       B5
We'll get through this tonight
            A5                         B5
And I know one day you and I will be free
    C#5
To live and die by our own rules,
  E5
Free..
  A5
Despite the fact that men are fools.

(chorus)
 E5           A5                       C#5
I'm almost alive, and I need you to try
     B5
And save me.
      E5                A5
It's okay that we're dying,
                C#5       B5        A5
But I need to survive tonight, tonight.

(bridge)
B5                               C#5
And you touch my hand ever so slightly
Girl we're not ready for this yet
B5                                 A5
And the deadly look she cast upon me
I won't regret, I won't regret
   B5        C#5     B5       A5
I won't regret. I won't regret...

            E5              B5
And I was trying to disappear,
                           A5
But you got me wrapped around you
I can hardly breathe without you
          E5            B5
I was trying to disappear
                         A5
But I got lost in your eyes now,
You brought me down to size now.

(chorus) 1 strum
 E5           A5                       C#5
I'm almost alive, and I need you to try
     B5
And save me.
      E5                A5
It's okay that we're dying,
                C#5       B5        A5
But I need to survive tonight, tonight.
