IN NEED OF A STRUMMING PATTERN
Personally this is my favourite song of East of Eli. It might not be completely correct, but I've tried as
much as possible to have the right timing for the chords with the lyrics.

I can survive
B
It's to let go

Take my chances in a world unknown

You know I've given all I have to give
E
I'll walk away with no regrets at all

I'm ready for the fall

Maybe one day

The sooner we both fall
The sooner we will learn

We can right this wrong

Now we have to carry on
