Use CAPO on 4th fret for original tune
[Intro]
Em C D
[Verse]
Em
I’ve been left out alone like a damn criminal
C
I’ve been praying for help cause I can’t take it all
D Am
I’m not done, It’s not over.
Em
Now I’m fighting this war since the day of the fall
C
And I’m desperately holding on to it all
D Am
But I’m lost, I’m so damn lost
[Pre-Chorus]
C D Em
Oh I wish it was over, And I wish you were here
D C D
Still I’m hoping that somehow
[Chorus]

D Em D Bm C D
A shot in the dark A shot in the dark
[Verse]
Em
In the blink of an eye I can see through your eyes
C
As I’m lying awake I’m still hearing the cries
D Am
And it hurts Hurts me so bad
Em
And I’m wondering why I still fight in this life
