verse 1: 

           G    Am 
Born and raised  
           Em                 C 
Under the rain and a western wind 
           G    Am 
Felt the weight  
               Em               C 
Trying to live up to they say I am 
            G    Am 
Is it any wonder  
              Em              C 
Shame comes calling my first name 
                G     Am 
Is there any question  
           Em                 C 
If I'm the one here left to blame  


Pre-Chorus 

                G 
It's the same fight  
          Am 
All over again  
               Em 
It's the same bite  
                C 
Breaking on my skin  
                G 
It's the same light  
                Am 
When you let me in  
           Em 
You let me in  
           C 
You let me in 
 

            Em       C     G   D 
You are the air I breathe (Oh, Oh) 
             Em      C    G   D 
You are the song I bleed (Oh, Oh) 
            Em                C 
You are the war that I can't win  
             G                D 
This is my white flag in the wind  
       Em        C    G   D 
Every word you speak (Oh, Oh) 
D                      
Is the air I breathe 


Interlude: G  Am  Em  C 


verse 2: 

                 G      Am   
I feel like a contender  
             Em               C 
Bringing my fist to a pistol war  
     G      Am 
I surrender  
                Em                        C 
That I need you now, and you've loved me more  
               G   Am 
It's like an ocean  
         Em                       C 
Over my head, and I'm under the light  
        G  Am   Em    C 
In slow mo  -  tion tonight  


Repeat Pre-Chorus

Bridge: 

Am                     C 
I hear you calling my name out name out  
D                    
Is there any other way now (Way now) 
Am                     C 
I hear you calling my name out, name out  
D 
I got nothing left to say now, say now  




            Em       C     G   D 
You are the air I breathe  
             Em      C    G   D 
You are the song I bleed  
            Em                C 
You are the war that I can't win  
             G                D 
This is my white flag in the wind  
       Em        C    G
