Intro:
|   Em7   |   G   |   Cadd9   |   G   |  x2

Em7                   Cadd9    G
      And sometimes,                 the most beautiful
Em7                     Cadd9    G                             Em7
pain in life is the kind       you can't disguise or hide.
Em7                      Cadd9         G
And the hard truth about life.             If I'm not
Em7
Allowed to give up on mine,
Cadd9           G                    Cadd9       G
You are not allowed to not even try.

        Em7          D/F#          Cadd9
One day at a time,          you'll have to remake
    G                    D/F#
The same decision as the one I made last night.

Em7     G        Cadd9            G
You and I have already started to die.
Em7               G                 Cadd9            G
And now that I understand, why I've never felt quite so alive.
Em7        G         Cadd9              G
And I feel like I've sang about scars a hundred times
Em7         G           Cadd9                G
But for the record I’ve found the reason for mine.

Em7                  Cadd9   G
      And sometimes,              we need to find a
Em7                                   Cadd9   G
Reason for the pain in our own lives.             Oh, and
Em7                Cadd9                  G
Mine was you and I promise this song is a place for the truth.
Em7                       Cadd9           G             Cadd9
 We can’t keep hiding and hurting. I know I’ve tried to.

    G        Em7      D/F#                Cadd9
One day at a time,          we just might have to remake
     G       D/F#
The decision every day for the rest of life.

Em7     G       Cadd9             G
You and I have already started to die.
Em7              G                  Cadd9            G
And now that I understand, why I've never felt quite so alive.
Em7        G        Cadd9               G
And I feel like I've sang about scars a hundred times
Em7        G           Cadd9              G                Cmaj7
But for the record I’ve finally found the reason for mine.

            Em      D/F#          C
And for the record,        I'm in California still writing one
Em       D/F#       C
Day at a time.           And for the record,
Em           D/F#            C
        I refuse to be ashamed of all my scars.
Em            D/F#
You and I are both the same.

(switch to finger-picking)

(continue finger-picking in the same pattern)
Em7           G             C
      We've already cheated death so many times.
(electric guitars kick in, palm muted versions of the same chords)
Em7               G            C                G
        If we’re going to die, why not cheat it again tonight?

Em      G        Cadd9            G
You and I have already started to die.
Em               G                  Cadd9            G
And now that I understand, why I've never felt quite so alive.
Em         G         Cadd9              G
And I feel like I've sang about scars a hundred times
Em          G           Cadd9                G
But for the record I’ve found the reason for mine.
