Version 2
[Intro]
Em Em Em Em
[Verse]
Em G D Am
You can't feel the heat until you hold your hand over the flame
Em G D Am
You have to cross the line just to remember where it lays
Em G D Am
You won't know your worth now son until you take a hit
Em G D Am
And you won't find the beat until you lose yourself in it
[Chorus]
Em G
That's why we won't back down we won't run and hide
D Am
Yeah, cause these are the things that we can't deny
Em G
I'm passing over you like a satellite
D C D
So catch me if I fall
Em G
That's why we stick to your game plans and party lives
D Am
But at night we're conspiring by candlelight
Em G
We are the orphans of the american dreams
D C D
Oh shine your light on me
[Interlude]
Em Em Em Em
[Verse]
Em G D Am
You can't fill your cup, until you empty all it has
Em G D
You can't understand what lays ahead
Am D
If you don't understand the past
Em G
You'll never learn to fly now
D Am
Until you're standing at the cliff
Em G D C D
And you can't truly love until you've given up on it
(Slide down)
[Chorus]
Em G
That's why we won't back down we won't run and hide
D Am
Yeah, cause these are the things that we can't deny
Em G
I'm passing over you like a satellite
D C D
So catch me if I fall
Em G
That's why we stick to your game plans and party lives
D Am
But at night we're conspiring by candlelight
Em G
We are the orphans of the american dreams
D C D
Oh shine your light on me
[Bridge]
C D
She told me that she never
C
Could face the world again
D
So I offered up a plan
Em
We'll sneak out
G
While they sleep
D Am
And sail off in the night
Em
We'll come clean
G D
And start over
Am
The rest of our lives
Em
When we're gone
G D
We'll stay gone
Am
Out of sight
Em
Out of mind
G D
It's not too late
Am
We have the rest of our lives
Em
We'll sneak out
G
While they sleep
D Am
And sail off in the night
Em
We'll come clean
G D
And start over
Am
The rest of our lives
Em
When we're gone
G D
We'll stay gone
Am
Out of sight
Em
Out of mind
G D
It's not too late
Am C D
We have the rest of our lives
C D
The rest of our lives
[Chorus]
Em
Because we won't back down we won't run and hide
Yeah, cause these are the things that we can't deny
Em G
I'm passing over you like a satellite
D C D
So catch me if I fall
Em G
That's why we stick to your game plans and party lives
D Am
But at night we're conspiring by candlelight
Em G
We are the orphans of the american dreams
D C D
Oh shine your light on me
Em G
We won't back down we won't run and hide
D Am
Yeah, cause these are the things that we can't deny
Em G
I'm passing over you like a satellite
D
Cause' these are the things that we can't deny now
C D Em
This is a life that you can't deny us now
