Intro:
| Em7 | G | Cadd9 | G | x2
[Em7] And sometimes, [Cadd9] [G] the most beautiful
[Em7]pain in life is the kind[Cadd9] yo[G]u can't disguise or hide.[Em7]
[Em7]And the hard truth about [Cadd9]life. [G] If I'm not
[Em7]Allowed to give up on mine,
[Cadd9]You are not allo[G]wed to not even try. [Cadd9] [G]
One day [Em7]at a time, [D/F#] you'll [Cadd9]have to remake
The [G]same decision as the [D/F#]one I made last night.
[Em7]You and [G]I have al[Cadd9]ready started to [G]die.
[Em7]And now that I und[G]erstand, why I've [Cadd9]never felt quite [G]so alive.
[Em7]And I feel [G]like I've [Cadd9]sang about scars a [G]hundred times
[Em7]But for the [G]record I've [Cadd9]found the reason for [G]mine.
[Em7] And sometimes, [Cadd9] [G] we need to find a
[Em7]Reason for the pain in our own lives. [Cadd9] [G] Oh, and
[Em7]Mine was you and I [Cadd9]promise this song is a [G]place for the truth.
[Em7] We can't keep hiding and [Cadd9]hurting. I know [G]I've tried to.[Cadd9]
One [G]day at a [Em7]time, [D/F#] we just might [Cadd9]have to remake
The d[G]ecision [D/F#]every day for the rest of life.
[Em7]You and [G]I have a[Cadd9]lready started to [G]die.
[Em7]And now that I un[G]derstand, why I've [Cadd9]never felt quite [G]so alive.
[Em7]And I feel [G]like I've[Cadd9] sang about scars a [G]hundred times
[Em7]But for the[G] record I've[Cadd9] finally found the [G]reason for mine. [Cmaj7]
And for the [Em]record, [D/F#] I'm in [C]California still writing one
[Em]Day at a [D/F#]time. [C] And for the record,
[Em] I ref[D/F#]use to be ashame[C]d of all my scars.
[Em]You and I are [D/F#]both the same.

(continue finger-picking in the same pattern)
[Em7] We've al[G]ready cheated [C]death so many times.
(electric guitars kick in, palm muted versions of the same chords)
[Em7] If we're g[G]oing to die, [C]why not cheat it [G]again tonight?
[Em]You and [G]I have al[Cadd9]ready started to [G]die.
[Em]And now that I un[G]derstand, why I've [Cadd9]never felt quite [G]so alive.
[Em]And I feel [G]like I've [Cadd9]sang about scars a [G]hundred times
[Em]But for the [G]record I've [Cadd9]found the reason for [G]mine.
