[Verse 1]
Em C Man it's good to be alive today Em C Some folks know I should be in a grave Em C Floating around on that astral plane D But I'm still down here and I'm still breathing Em C I gotta fire that constantly burns Em C It's fueled by hard times and lessons learned Em C You wanna take me down best wait your turn D I gotta body count that's stacked up to the damn ceiling Em C I never gave a damn about your scene Em C Or your psychotic monopolies Em C You picked my pocket just to watch me bleed D But I'm still out here and I'm still singing
[Chorus]
C Em D I guess I've finally found peace out here in the wild C Em D As my reflection shows the lessons and the miles C Em D G And hell I've known because hell I've seen hell them ghost still carry me C Through the fields of thorns and the promises broken D There's far too many words that we leave unspoken
[Verse 2]
Em C Maybe for once you could open your mind Em C It's been like this since the beginning of time Em C Around here the blind lead the blind D They wanna burn you down and leave your ashes smoking Em C Well, I was fired straight out of a gun Em C I've lived my life always on the run Em C I messed around and flew too close to the sun D It's been a few years now but my eyes are open Em C I find it best to just be yourself Em C In a world that tells you to be someone else Em C For the time will come when the pin hits the shell D You best know who you are when your number's chosen
[Chorus]
C Em D I guess I've finally found peace out here in the wild C Em D As my reflection shows the lessons and the miles C Em D G And hell I've known because hell I've seen hell them ghost still carry me C Em D I guess I've finally found peace out here in the wild C Em D As my reflection shows the lessons and the miles C Em D G And hell I've known because hell I've seen hell them ghost still carry me C Through the fields of thorns and the promises broken D There's far too many words that we leave unspoken
