  			Intro (x2): || F2 || G2 || Dm7 || C  


verse 1: 
         F2                   G2 
So I walk alone down the dark - est roads 
              Dm7                      C 
Cause I've al - ways known how the sto - ry goes 
             F2                         G2 
When the cur - tain falls, I'll be wear - ing thin 
         Dm7                         C 
Clawing at the walls as they're clos - ing in 


verse 2: 
              F2                  G2    
In this twist - ed plot I was des - tined for 
         Dm7                 C 
I'm an as - tronaut on the o - cean floor 
         F2                        G2  
So misun - derstood 'till the bloo - dy end 
          Dm7                 C     | Am | F 
How I wish   I could do it all again 



C                    G 
 It feels like I'm a lone survivor 
Am               G7 
  Forgotten in a dark and deadly world 
C             G 
 And on my own, I walk alone 
Am                    F                      
  To see the sun again I'd give anything 
C                   G 
 But life demands a final chapter 
Am                G7 
  A story that we all must leave behind 
C              G 
 It's do or die, and this is mine 
Am                    F 
  The anthem of a bird with a broken wing
