A6sus2 x04400 [Verse 1]
  Esus4   E       C#m   A       G#m    A6sus2
I long to see the other side of things

     E                C#m        A         G#m    A6sus2
Hung on the cliff, in search of something big

  E                C#m   A      G#m    A6sus2
I can’t look down, I can only retreat

    E                  C#m    A       G#m    A6sus2
Who knows one day I’ll dive into the sea
[Chorus]
A    B  A   B   E             D
Here we all are sitting like fools

E             C#m      G#m
Stuck by the rules of fate

A       B   A        B    E            D
Is what we are what we’ve grown to believe

E           C#m      G#m     A6sus2
Better the devil you know
[Verse 2]
     Esus4   E      C#m           A      G#m    A6sus2
Live for the day we throw caution to the wind

       E           C#m      A    G#m    A6sus2
All we need is the courage to begin

  E                  C#m       A       G#m    A6sus2
I might get hurt but never be scared again

   E                C#m       A       G#m    A6sus2
At once to feel the pleasure and the pain
[Bridge]
Am           G     Am              Em
    Into the city,   into the city every day

Am           G     F                  Bb
    Into the city, piling through the factory gates

Am           G     Am              Em
    It’s not easy,   it’s not easy to escape

Am             G       F                Bb         Em
    All the decisions,   that you’ve already made

Who knows one day I’ll dive into the sea
