Living the Crash : I Am Giant ? (Drop D Tuning)
Intro: Eb ? Gm ? F ? Eb ? Gm ? F (x2)
[Eb]As lucid as the [Gm]dream,
Where you wake[F] behind the wheel[Eb].
Strange that you should [Gm]fee[F]l pa- ra- lys[Eb]ed.
The dream where you can fly,[Gm]
And you rise abo[F]ve your hometown[Eb],
And tell them they can k[Gm]eep their gravity.[Bb]
Are you wide awa[Dm]ke?
Caught in the cr[C]ossfire, caught in the c[Bb]rash.
Are you wide awa[Dm]ke?
Born in the cr[C]ossfire, living th[Dm]e crash.
[Eb]As lucid as the [Gm]punch,
You're throwing [F]in slow-motion.[Eb]
A fist you canno[Gm]t lift, [F]a fight you cann[Eb]ot win.
And would you really die[Gm],
[F]If you hit the b[Eb]ottom?
If the ground didn't wake you up [Gm]in the fall-ing[Bb] dream.
Are you wide awa[Dm]ke?
Caught in the cr[C]ossfire, caught in the c[Bb]rash.
Are you wide awa[Dm]ke?
Born in the cr[C]ossfire, living th[Dm]e crash.
Bb (ch)Dm/A(/ch)
Smashing your way through the looking-glass.
Bb (ch)Dm/A(/ch) Bb Dm
Fantasy can still be razor-sharp - for you.
For y[Bb]ou who wanted everything,
[Dm]You who promised everything.
Instr riff (C C D D D C D ? over Dm, C, Gm, A)
Something [Bb]followed you back,
And woke[Gm] up in the crash.
Somehow, [Dm]followed you out of your domain.[C]
Something [Bb]followed you back,
Out [Gm]through the looking-glass,
Somehow br[Dm]inging a cloud of the surreal.
Are you wide awa[Dm]ke?
Caught in the cr[C]ossfire, caught in the c[Bb]rash.
Are you wide awa[Dm]ke?
C Dm (continue chorus chords)
Born in the crossfire, living the crash.
Now are you,
Are you wide awake now?
Now are you,
Are you wide awake now?
(Are you wide awake now?)
Are you wide awake now?
