Intro: A    C#m  E   (3x, first time
 just synth, band comes in 2nd time)

Verse 1:
A2
Oh, when we were born, when we first
 arrived
C#m2                      E2
We took it all in through innocent 
eyes
A2
But we got jaded 'cause the beauty 
faded
C#m2                       E2    
So now we fake it in worlds built
                        A
 in the sky
      C#m              No Chord
But we keep coming up dry

Chorus:
E5
I'm waking up to what's around me
A5
I've lost too much to a fantasy
E5                                
I'm tired of living like I'm just 
             A5
getting by
                  F#m
Just getting by
                        A2     
Am I just getting by
C#m2   E2


Verse 2:
A2
Life can take a toll, everyday 
demands

C#m2                    E2
So much energy, so many mundane 
plans
A2
So we go digital, purely physical
C#m2
Hey, it's just medicinal
No Chord
We need to ease our minds

Chorus:
E5
I'm waking up to what's around me
A5
I've lost too much to a fantasy
E5                                
I'm tired of living like I'm just 
             A5
getting by
                  F#m
Just getting by

Am I just getting by

Bridge:
C#m        A5
I want to be all here now
E5             B
Wherever I am, that's where I'll be 
found
C#m                      A5
Staying present even in the fear now
E5               B
Life with open eyes
                      C#m
Please don't pass me by
                       A5
Life, don't pass me by
                       E5
Life, don't pass me by
                        B
Feel a spark when we look each other
 in the eye
