[Verse 1]
G Am G When you were young and you were alive before you let it pass you by Am Lying awake night after night staring at the ceiling G Am You were afraid but God knows why so what’s it gonna take honey G Am For you to believe there might be a better life waiting
[Prechorus]
C G Don’t make it worse. Let it go past D Am C Maybe we’ll find the time to walk again in the sun G D Am Before the darkness that comes around for everyone C G D Am C And I know that it’s hard on you but it’s hard on me too G A Honey we’re lost together
[Chorus]
C G D Am And I know that I believe in you honey if you believe in me C G D Am But I know it’s hard to do because I don’t believe in anything C G D Am Honey and I believe in you only if you believe in me C G D Am C G But I know it’s hard to do because I don’t wanna belie--ve in me

[Verse 2]
G Am Where did you lose the fire in your eyes? Little blue embers G Am Funny the way the well runs dry used to feel something G Am Used to believe that power lies somewhere inside G Am I couldn’t see that there was a better life waiting
[Prechorus]
C G I know it hurts and it goes fast D Am C We didn’t take the time to walk together in the sun G D Am Before the darkness honey that came just like I knew it would C G D Am C G A And I know I was hard on you. You were hard on me too. Maybe we’re lost forever.
[Chorus]
C G D Am And I know that I believe in you honey if you believe in me C G D Am But I know it’s hard to do because I don’t believe in anything C G D Am Honey and I believe in you only if you believe in me C G D Am C G But I know it’s hard to do because I don’t wanna belie--ve in me
[Outro]
G Am When you were young you were alive G Am When you were young you were alive
