AARON WEST AND THE ROARING TWENTIES - Get Me Out of Here Alive
Decided to use Matt9924's intro tab as a basis to figure out the rest of the chords. Play the riff through
all of the verses, and for the chorus strum them as open chords.
Tuning: Standard

I'm starting to believe that there's a god and he hates me.
G D C G D C
I'm starting to believe that my mom lied about grace and divinity,

And it hurts like a sunburn,

Wakes me up from a deep sleep.

With my windows down, I can still hear the gospel choir singing.
G D C G D C
I stayed in the car, and the light from the stained-glass window didn't reach me.

The cicadas are deafening,

Their voices caught in the breeze.

You're not walking next to me.

All alone is all I'll ever be.

I'm getting by. The only faith I had left was a lie.

All fractured and outlines. Get me out of here alive.
