Secondhand Serenade – Half Alive

This video is requested from GuitarTutee.
VERSE 1
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
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.

Pluck: D Bm A G

Verse 2
D
Well excuse me while I get killed softly,
Bm A
Heart slows down and I can hardly tell you I’m okay
G
At least ’til yesterday,
D
You know you got me off my highest guard,
Bm
Believe me when I say it’s hard.
A
We’ll get through this tonight
G A
And I know one day 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.

BRIDGE PART 1:
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,
G
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.

CHORUS:
