Stay alive — José González

[Intro]

F# C# Ebm - Ebm C# B


[Verse]

F#                  C#         Ebm
There's a rhythm in rush these days
          Ebm                       C#           B
Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade
F#                    C#          Ebm
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
     Ebm                      C#         B
In a world gone shallow, in a world gone lean

F#                            C#      Ebm
Sometimes there's things a man cannot know
Ebm                      C#           B
Gears won't turn and the leaves won't grow
        F#                    C#   Ebm
There's no place to run and no gasoline
Ebm                       C#          B
Engine won't turn and the train won't leave
Ebm                        C#          B
Engines won't turn and the train won't leave


[Chorus]

F#     C#        Ebm   B
I will stay with you tonight
C#                      Ebm     B/G#
Hold you close 'til the morning light
       F#          C#    Ebm      B
In the morning watch a new day rise
      C#                  Ebm   B/G#
We'll Do whatever just to stay alive
      C#                  Ebm   B
We'll Do whatever just to stay alive


[Verse]

         F#                  C#      Ebm
Well the way I feel is the way I write
   Ebm                            C#      B
It isn't like the thoughts of the man who lies
F#                          C#      Ebm
There is a truth and it's on our side
Ebm             C#        B
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
Ebm                      C#       B
Look into the sun as the new days rise


[Chorus]

    F#     C#       Ebm   B
And I will wait for you tonight
       C#                      Ebm   B/G#
You're here forever and you're by my side
F#          C#      Ebm     B
I've been waiting all my life
   C#                      Ebm     B/G#
To feel your heart as it's keeping time
      C#                  Ebm   B
We'll Do whatever just to stay alive


[Interlude]

F# C# B (x2)

F#              C#            B
Dawn is coming, open your eyes  (x4)

Look into the sun as a new days rise.
