EmDCEm
I had a purpose then, pursing the path to catalyze our dream
EmDCD
But it’s a winding road, where you stumble and sway your way amongst the crowd
[Verse]
EmD
Don’t get me wrong, I would never go back in time – or play God
CD
But is there a way I could earn back that endless sky?
Em
I can see it in your eyes
D
Don’t give me that look – ‘cause, you see
CD
You’re the last person I need to pity me
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Cryin’ won’t pave a way to forgiveness
D
Every sin you carve is ever lasting
Em
I’m lost in this maze of emotion
A
Who am I waiting for?
C
Now, these once blank pages of my notebook
DEm
Become a plea to regain fallen virtue
EmDC
All this time, I’ve been trying to run away from my own reality
[Chorus]
EmD
We’ll live for something as soon as we find it
CDEm
I’ve forgotten, please remind me, as day turns darkness
EmDEm
Expired chances - but we gotta make it through again
D
‘cause there’s no where else to run
[Chorus]
EmD
There’s still so much here, a life worth living
CA
And with time you’ll drown the feeling out (I’M ON THE WAY)
EmDEm
It’s so nostalgic, maybe all the love is worth the pain
[Verse 2]
EmD
It’s not a lack of pride,
CEm
But I know I’m to blame, so I apologize
EmD
I don’t know what to say
CEm
But I wish I could free the worry from your eyes
[Chorus]
EmD
All we’ve been through and all that’s yet to come
CD
And all that we have become will remain as we roll the dice
EmD
Once more, I close my eyes from the sight
CD
But it’s all a futile fight, for it’s all etched inside my mind
[Pre-Chorus]
C
The invite of a white lie,
D
Some can’t resist the call to join in
EmA
But still, I thought I knew you better than to give into pressure
C
Once fury thorns in your heart,
D
The fire’s quick to consume you
EmA
And what comes from those ashes – is your reality
[Chorus]
EmD
We’ll live for something as soon as we find it
CD
May we come across that future
EmD
Can you hear me? I’m screaming
Em
Expired chances,
DEm
But we gotta make it through again
D
‘cause there’s no where else to run
[Post-Chorus]
EmD
It’s through your kindness, I’ll always be grateful
CA
And I’ll strive to become stronger (I’M ON THE WAY)
EmDEm
I’ll carry onward, gaining friend and foe along the way
[Bridge]
F
I try to make sense of why
GAm
We can’t figure how to unlock the next door
F
We bleed on this path we lead
GAm
But we cannot turn back, cause our story’s begun
FAmFAm
Open up your eyes - Open up your eyes
[Chorus]
EmD
There’s still so much here, a life worth living
CA
And with time I’ll drown the feeling out
Em
I need to right all my wrongs
DC
And finish all things I’ve left undone
Em
We’ve only just begun
[Post-Chorus]
EmD
We’ll live for something as soon as we find it
CD
May we come across that future
EmD
Can you hear me? I’m screaming
Em
Expired chances,
DEm
But we gotta make it through again
D
‘cause there’s no where else to run
[Outro]
EmD
It’s through your kindness, I’ll always be grateful
CA
And I’ll strive to become stronger (I’M ON THE WAY)
EmDEm
It’s so nostalgic, maybe all the love is worth the pain
