Dsus2 Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G
Dsus2/B Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G
Verse:
------
Dsus2 Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G
When I was a kid I'd take chances
Dsus2/B Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G
And if I didn't all my cousins would mock
Dsus2 Dsus2/F#
A broken piece of plywood
Dsus2/G
Overlooked up my childhood
Dsus2/B Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G
Propped up on an old cinder block
Dsus2 Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G
As a child it looked to me like 20 stories
Dsus2/B Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G
Drop straight down to an untimely death
Dsus2 Dsus2/F#
So I'd start up on the hill
Dsus2/G
Get a pace that could kill
Dsus2/B Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G
That even my bike would hold its breath
Asus G
Somehow I've lost all my ambition
Bm Asus2 G
‘cause I know I'd never try that today
Dsus2 Dsus2/C# Dsus2/B G
Looking way back now between the jump and the ground
Asus Dsus2
Is the only time that I could ever say
Chorus:
-------
G
You can stand there on the ground
D
And let your fear keep you down
Dsus2/B Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G
Or you can pick up all your courage and fly
Asus
When it comes down to the end
Dsus2 Dsus2/C# Dsus2/B
Are you living my friend
G Asus D
Or just trying your best not to die
Interlude:
----------
Dsus2 Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G
Dsus2/B Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G
Verse:
------
Dsus2 Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G
Now I got two boys that are fearless
Dsus2/B Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G
And they scare me to death half the time
Dsus2 Dsus2/F#
Between jumping off their beds
Dsus2/G
And busting up their heads
Dsus2/B Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G
Light sockets stuffed full of dimes
Asus G
The youngest one climbed up the ladder
Bm Asus G
While the oldest one was screaming my name
Dsus2 Dsus2/C# Dsus2/B G
I turned around just in time to see him dropping with a smile
Asus Dsus2
Looked up at me, I swear I heard him say
Chorus:
-------
G
You can stand there on the ground
D
And let your fear keep you down
Dsus2/B Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G
Or you can pick up all your courage and fly
Asus
When it comes down to the end
Dsus2 Dsus2/C# Dsus2/B
Are you living my friend
G Asus Bm
Or just trying your best not to die
Bridge:
-------
Em7 D
Every day that you're given brings you closer
G Asus
To being taken away
Chorus:
-------
G
You can stand there on the ground
D
And let your fear keep you down
Dsus2/B Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G
Or you can pick up all your courage and fly
Asus
When it comes down to the end
Dsus2 Dsus2/C# Dsus2/B
Are you living my friend
G Asus D
Or just trying your best not to die
