I've tasted fire I'm ready to come alive

I can't just shut it up and fake that I'm alright

Let it burn the way the sunlight burns my skin

The way I feel inside, the way the day begins

I'm ready now

I'm not waiting for the other side cause...

I'm ready now 

Refrão: 
      Am 
Everyday 
               C 
The world is made 
                 F 
A chance to change 
                 Dm 
But I feel the same 
                 Am 
And I wonder why 
                     C 
would I wait till I die 
             F 
to come alive? 

I'm ready now 
G 
I'm not waiting for the afterlife 

Am 
I still believe we can live forever 
                             F 
You and I we begin forever now 
           Dm 
Forever now 
Am 
I still believe in us together 
                             F 
You and I we're here together now 
          Dm 
Forever now 
          F 
Forever now 
           Dm 
Or never now 


     Am 
Everyday 
                C 
A choice is made 
        F 
Everyday 
              Dm 
I choose my fate 
               Am 
And I wonder why 
                      C 
Would I wait till I die 
          F 
to come alive? 
        Dm 
to come alive 

     Am 
Everyday 
      C 
Everyday 
     F 
Everyday 
                       Dm 
I still feel the same 
F 
I'm ready now 
G 
I'm not waiting for the afterlife 
F 
I'm ready now 
G 
I'm ready now 

Am
