[Verse 1]
Bm                    A
Royal beggars, royal beggars

                            G
Do you, do you, do you wanna

G       Bm            A
Live forever, live forever

A
Alone, alone, alone?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
 G           F#m
'Cause we're broken

            G               F#m
All hope is dead, but we're coping
N.C. Somebody, save our souls [Chorus]
Bm               G               A
Like a bird in a cage, trying to fly away

                               F#m Bm
Is this the price that we have to pay?

                 G            A
Overflowing with rage, yet we still obey

                          F#m      
'Cause we're asleep in a hurricane
[Verse 2]
G      Bm             A
Bitter lovers, bitter lovers

                                  G
Let go, let go, let go 'cause it's

G      Bm            A
Now or never, now or never

A
Breathe in, breathe out, breathe in
[Pre-Chorus 2]
 G           F#m
'Cause we're choking

             G               F#m
And left for dead, but we're coping
N.C. Somebody, save our souls [Chorus]
Bm               G               A
Like a bird in a cage, trying to fly away

                               F#m Bm
Is this the price that we have to pay?

                 G            A
Overflowing with rage, yet we still obey

                         F#m      
'Cause we're asleep in a hurricane
[Instrumental] G Bm A [Bridge]
G              Bm                   A
Are you listening? You may not have noticed

                            G
We have totally lost our way

G                   Bm                           A
Are you lost in the clouds? Or can you hold your focus?

                                  G
It's ourselves that we will betray

G               Bm                  A
Are you listening? You may not have noticed

                            G
We have totally lost our way

G                   Bm                           A
Are you lost in the clouds? Or can you hold your focus?

A
It's ourselves that we will betray
[Chorus]
Bm               G               A
Like a bird in a cage, trying to fly away

                               F#m Bm
Is this the price that we have to pay?

                 G            A
Overflowing with rage, yet we still obey

                         F#m   
'Cause we're asleep in a hurricane
[Outro]
F#m                             G               F#m 
We sit on a throne, waiting for God to bend the knee

F#m                         N.C.
But we're nothing more than royal beggars

F#m                      G
But I'm as guilty as the next man

F#m                              G
Our eyes are open, but we're not listening
