Verse 1:

(Plucking)
                  D                                    Bm
It's four AM, I'm waking up to your perfume
                                          A
Don't get up, I'll get through on my own
                                   G
I don't know if I'm home
         D
Or if I lost the way into your room
    Bm
I'm spiraling into my doom
    A                                                      G
I'm feeling half alive but I know one day
                  (strum)A
You and I will be free,

Chorus:

  Bm                               A                     D
To live and die by our own rules, Free...
G
Despite the fact that men are fools.
D                   G                                         Bm
I'm almost alive, and I need you to try
         A
And save me.
      D                               G
It's okay that we're dying,
                              Bm      A             G
But I need to survive tonight, tonight.

Heart slows down and I can hardly tell you I'm okay

You know you got me off my highest guard,

Believe me when I say it's hard.

Bridge:

[Part 1] (Shots)

A                                                       G
And you touch my hand ever so slightly
                      
(Girl we're not ready for this yet)
A                                                       G
And the deadly look she cast upon me
                    A                       G
I won't regret, I won't regret                    
                    A                       G
I won't regret.   I won't regret...

Bridge Part 2:

                      D                     A
And I was trying to disappear,

But you got me wrapped around you

I can hardly breathe without you
             D                        A
I was trying to disappear
                                          G
But I got lost in your eyes now,

You brought me down to size now.
