               C 
Oh when these feelings run high 
    G 
I'm going to feel alive 
          Am7 
Like the rebirth that comes from with inside 
          C 
I've got insight, fuck pride 
 G                            Am7 
Imma live this life, with no fears 

Swagger in my stride, this is who I am 

C                 G 
See sometimes it might seem hard 
        Am7 
But you gotta push on to the next frame of mind

Love life, livin' in the sunshine 
 Am 
Love life, livin' in the sunshine

C           Am 
I'm up in arms

A forest in my mind no velvet echoes 
  C7M                 G 
Freely swimming in this ocean breeze 
       Am7 
Cause no one gets out of here alive

Verso 3:
G 
Back when it was darkness 
F# 
Full of self-destructiveness 
Am 
Brinking a muck over no-where 

We were thinking fuck this 
G                        F# 
Gotta push through this, the cuts and the bruises 
Am 
Self manifestation and crudeness 
           G                F# 
We need to use this, follow positivity 
           Am 
Cause I'm sick of kicking 'round all these dead beats, dead sheep 
   Em                        D                         C  
We used to live a life of luxury, so let's get back to that 


 C       G     Am7  
Stay with me 
               C7M     G    Am  
We can let this go, you see 
    C      G     Am  
I'm up in arms 
                            C     D     Am  
Can't you see what's really going on 

                        C7M         Am7 
Can't you see that I am cool and calm
