C#m       B          A
How many lies must I become
C#m         B             A
To get to a place off the track?
C#m    B                 A
In our pursuit of number one
C#m                B              A
Everybody's racing harder for the pass

(You were the one)


[Pre-Chorus]

 A                   B
'Cause she was the girl that I used to be
C#m         B
A girl with no responsibility
A          B
Became the armour that I hid behind
C#m
You like what you see


[Chorus]
C#m         A            B
Why are you so scared of falling?

(Hold your head up high)
C#m         A                B
Why do you hold on? Stop the mourning

(Rise and redefine)
A          B
When you begin to feel it
C#m
You know what to do so go and find it
                    A
This is your alter life


[Verse 2]

C#m            B            A
Don't stop for any red blue light
C#m             B         A
The moment will fade underneath
C#m         B                A
Keep on the road and don't lose sight
C#m                 B          A
Everybody's waiting for you to arrive

(You were the one)


[Pre-Chorus]

 A                   B
'Cause she was the girl that I used to be
C#m         B
A girl with no responsibility
A          B
Breaking the armour that I hid behind
C#m
You like what you see


[Chorus]

C#m         A            B
Why are you so scared of falling?

(Hold your head up high)

C#m         A                B
Why do you hold on? Stop the mourning

(Rise and redefine)

A          B
When you begin to feel it

C#m
You know what to do so go and find it

                    A
This is your alter life


[Bridge]

A               B
You are who you are
C#m
All of the pain and pleasure is you

(You were the one)

A                B
Although life is hard
                               C#m
Deep in the center unshaken is you


This is my

C#m         B          A
(Alterlife, alterlife, alterlife)

You know what to do
D#m         C#         B
(Alterlife, alterlife, alterlife)


[Chorus]
D#m            B         C#
Why are you so scared of falling?

(Hold your head up high)
D#m        B                  C#
Why do you hold on? Stop your mourning

(Rise and redefine)
B            C#
And all this time been tryin
D#m                                     C#
Looking in the wrong place at the wrong time

(And now you're done)

B                  C#
The girl inside is healing
D#m                                     C#
You know what to do now that you've found it
