[Intro]
 
Am   Am   Dm  F
Am   Am   Dm  F
 
[Verse 1]
              C
You were alive
               F      C
And you were unafraid
                F           C            Em
Of how much the world could take from you
                Am       C      Em
So how did you lose your way?
                 Am      C      G
And what can you tell me now?
            C      G
How are you these days?
               C     G
I want to know everything
              C         G      Am
How hard are times out there?
              Dm    F     Am
These are the things
                       Dm      F
That I wish I could've said
    C
To you
 
 
F     C
 
F     C    Em
 
[Verse 2]
            Am   C    Em
So I can relate
                   Am       C         Em
With the notion of need to erase me
                    Am        C        G
I know you weren't faking or making it up
           C        G
How did it get that bad?
              C     G     Am
Did you even hesitate?
               Dm       F       Am
You go out so far to escape
               Dm       F
To try and replace your fate
        C
So you say
 
[Verse 3]
                      F    C
"Thеre's no need to contemplate
                    F     C
Likе we all end up dead anyway
                  F       C       Em
And there are no remedies ready"
                       Am     C   Em
But I swear there are many
                      Am      C   Em
But I swear there are many
                        Am           C          G
And if I could I would pick you back up to the top
 
[Outro]
 
G         C        G 
(x3)
 
C         F        C 
(x3)
 
G
