Chords

[Verse 1]
Gm
Sitting awake before the morning sun

Bb/F
Only 'cause I couldn't fall asleep while the night was young

Gm/Eb
I'm restless, can't call myself stressless

Dsus4                                        D  
These past weeks have left me breathless and senseless

Gm
My brother from another mother lost a brother

      Bb/F                                                                           Gm/Eb
My father lost his father, I lost a friend, something that I couldn't comprehend
We'll never see these men again
Dsus4                   D
Once upon a time life was so innocent
[Verse 2]
Gm
We're past the past

Bb/F
The now is now

The future will be here in a minute

                 Dsus4                              D
But I don't care what's going down

           Gm
Anyhow, I miss the time with the many smiles

Bb/F
When we could always stretch it for a little while

Gm/Eb
Now you're gone and it feels like I'm alone

Dsus4.                        D
Oh god dammit, how I miss you so
[Verse 3]
Gm
Sometimes it will feel time can stop

Bb/F
Sometimes I feel like giving up

Eb
But then I hear a voice inside of me

              Dsus4                                D
Saying: "Better die with your chin up, than living on your knees"

Gm
Daydreaming is OK sometimes

Bb/F
But to face the facts really hurts

                        Gm/Eb
And when you finally feel the weight of your burden

       Dsus4.                          D
Get up again if you kiss the dirt
[Chorus]
                            Gm
I'd rather live one day as a lion

                                Bb/F
Than live a hundred years as a sheep

                            Gm/Eb
I'd rather reign in Hell than serve in Heaven

                        Dsus4                 D
Live my dream out in reality and not in my sleep

Gm
The past is gone

Bb/F
The now is now

Gm/Eb
The future will be here in a minute

                 Dsus4.                           D          /C      /Bb   /A
But I don't care what's going down, what's going down
[Verse 4]
Gm
People tell me: "Pick yourself up off the road"

Bb/F
Can't I just stay and get squashed like a little toad?

Gm/Eb
They'll say you have a burden to carry

Dsus4                                D
Somewhere along the line there's a girl to marry

Gm
But don't worry, I'll get up

           Bb/F
I won't give it up even if it won't stop

                      Gm/Eb
Hurting in my heart now that we're apart

                          Dsus4                         D
My chronic pain is about to start, will it be hard?
[Chorus]
                            Gm
I'd rather live one day as a lion

                                 Bb/F
Than live a hundred years as a sheep

                           Gm/Eb
