[Verse]
E G#m C#m A
Life can feel like a red light screaming "Go!"
E G#m C#m A
And every day means an answer I don't know.
E G#m
This world can make you want to fake it
C#m A
And nobody wants to face it alone.
E G#m C#m A
It’s hard to shake that feeling that your heart’s not home.
[Chorus]
E
I'm trying to live,
B
Trying to hope,
C#m
Trying to love,
A
Trying to cope,
E B C#m F#
Life's a war that few of us survive.
A B E
And I'm just trying to make it out alive.
[Interlude]
G#m C#m A
[Verse]
E G#m C#m A
Everyone has a story to be told,
E G#m C#m A
And every tongue has a lie it could expose.
E G#m
This world describes all the treatments,
C#m A
To keep all the secrets you want,
E G#m C#m A
We've learned how to think without our minds turned on.
[Chorus]
E
I'm trying to live,
B
Trying to hope,
C#m
Trying to love,
A
Trying to cope,
E B C#m F#
Life's a war that few of us survive.
A B C#m
And I'm just trying to make it out alive.
[Verse]
C#m B A E
The pain we go through is what makes us who we are.
A C#m
And if we hold each other through,
A B
the deepest darkest parts...
[Chorus]
E
Then we can live,
B
Then we can hope,
C#m
Then we can love,
A
Then we can cope,
E B C#m A B
Life is not a jump it is a head first dive!
E
I'm trying to live,
B
Trying to hope,
C#m
Trying to love,
A
Trying to cope,
E B C#m F#
Life's a war that few of us survive.
A B C#m
And I'm just trying to make it out alive.
