Verse 1 (Acoustic):
[1] [2] [3] [4] [1][2][3][4]
I rem[E]ember when, when I [A]first moved here,[A] a long time a[E]go,
[1] [2] [3] [4][1][2][3][4]
cause I h[E]eard some song I used to [A]hear back then,[A] a lone time ag[E]o.
Interlude (Heavily distorted electric): Intro rhythm x1
Verse 2 (Acoustic):
I remember when, even further back, in another town,
cause I saw something written I used to say back then, hard to comprehend
Chorus:
And the qu[E]estion is, was I more alive than [F#m]I am now?
[C#m]I happily have to disagree;[G#]
I laugh more [A]often now, I cry more [F#m]often now, [A]
[A]I am more me.
Interlude (Heavily distorted electric)
Verse 3 (Acoustic):
But of cause some days, I just lie around and hardly exist,
and cant tell apart what Im eating from my hand or my wrist.
Cause flesh is flesh, flesh as flesh as flesh, the difference is thin.
But life has a certian ability of breathing new life into me.
So I breathe it in.
It says here we are, and we all are here, and you still can make sense,
if you just show up and present an honest face, instead of that grin.
Chorus
Interlude (Heavily distorted electric)
Verse 4 (Acoustic):
And the other day, this new friend of mine said something to me:
"just because something starts differently, doesnt mean its worth less."
And I soaked it in, how I soaked it in, how I soaked it in.
And just as to prove how right he was, then you came.
So Im gonna give, yes Im gonna give, Im gonna give you a try,
So Im gonna give, yes Im gonna give, Im gonna give you a try
Chorus
