Numb
David Archuleta
[Intro]
Am C F C
[Verse 1]
Am
I think I’ll take a second chance
F
I won’t be passing by these waters again
C
Wanna feel redemption’s hand
G
And see this life only for what it is
Am
I know the river’s not too wide
F
Had to see it for myself with my own eyes
C
Someone out there’s on my side
C
It’s not my place to question why
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
Everybody needs time away
F
To wake up with the sun on their face
C
I’m not there yet but i know
[Chorus]
C Am
That I don’t wanna feel numb
F G
Falling over all of my shadows
Am
Yeah I’m all done
F G
'Cause none of that ever really mattered
Am F
It hurts to live so wide awake, oh
C
But it’s a chance I can take
G Am F
I won’t run run run
C Em Am
'Cause I don’t wanna feel numb
[Verse 2]
F Am
So deep inside these hills I run
F
To a place where I can see 'til kingdom come
Em C
See the days one by one
C G
And love this life only for what it, what it is
Am F
I hear the whispers in the stars
F
The words that tell us more of who we are
C
Someone out there’s not that far
Everything I need is here now
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
Everybody needs time away
F
To wake up with the sun on their face
C
I’m not there yet but i know
[Chorus]
C Am
That I don’t wanna feel numb
F G
Falling over all of my shadows
Am
Yeah I’m all done
F G
'Cause none of that ever really mattered
Am F
It hurts to live so wide awake, oh
C
But it’s a chance I can take
G Am F
I won’t run run run
C Em Am
'Cause I don’t wanna feel numb
[Bridge]
Am
A tidal wave brought to life
F
Rushing over every doubt of mine
Am
Open soul in an open sky
C F C G Am F G
Everything, everything is right
[Chorus]
C Am
That I don’t wanna feel numb
F G
Falling over all of my shadows
Am
Yeah I’m all done
F G
'Cause none of that ever really mattered
Am F
It hurts to live so wide awake, oh
C G
But it’s a chance I can take
Am F C
I won’t run run run, yeah
G Am F
And no, I won’t run run run
C Em Am
'Cause I don’t wanna feel numb
C F Am
'Cause I don’t wanna feel numb
C G G7 G
'Cause I don’t wanna feel numb
