C D Em F D# A#
Just dy - ing to be a - live, yeah
The people you've touched the way you touched them
I hope they've touched you too
'Cause in this life it's hard to tell what's false and what is true
We're all on the ground just crying out would somebody save me please
I won't sit around just thinking about the troubles that tomorrow brings
I'm dying to be alive yeah
Not trying to just survive
Let's not go through our lives without
Just dying to be alive
Bridge:
Am G F C
And we all come tumbling down
Am G F C
No matter how strong we all return to the ground
Am G F C
Another day gone, a day closer to fate
Am F
And soon we'll find it's a little bit too late
The things you see the way you see them will never be seen again
Let's go through life living on luck, betting ten thousand to ten
Mistakes I've made in this life I can't say why or when
But the thing that's strange is you only live once, I'll never look back again
Chorus: (moved up a step)

Just dying to be alive, yeah
