Barely Alive

             Db
We seem to neglect
               Ebm
The cause and effect
         Bbm
It’s obsolete
              Db
And live to perfect
           Ebm           Bbm
But are we happy, are we free?
               Db       Ab     Bbm
This brave new world is all we know
             Db
But I wonder why
              Ebm           Bbm
I’m biding my time in here alone


[Chorus]
             Ab
We’re barely alive
       Fm                 Bbm
Are we all just spinning around?
              Ab
I’m out of my mind
       Fm        Bbm
When I think out loud
                 Ab                     Fm
The heart of the moment we’re lost in a place
                Bbm               Db
I’m caught in a corner and saving face
             Ab
We’re barely alive
       Fm                 Bbm
Are we all just spinning around?


[Verse 2]
                  Db
They’ve made it a crime

               Ebm
To step out of line
                  Bbm
Or go against the grain
                Db
They cover your eyes
         Ebm           Bbm
And only hope that you behave
               Db       Ab     Bbm
This brave new world is all we know
             Db
But I wonder why
                 Ebm              Bbm
The people, they try to call this home


[Chorus]
             Ab
We’re barely alive
       Fm                 Bbm
Are we all just spinning around?
              Ab
I’m out of my mind
       Fm        Bbm
When I think out loud
                 Ab                     Fm
The heart of the moment we’re lost in a place
                Bbm               Db
I’m caught in a corner and saving face
             Ab
We’re barely alive
       Fm                 Bbm
Are we all just spinning around?

Ab Db Ebm Bbm
Ab Db Ebm Bbm


[Bridge]
Db  Ebm     Bbm
Oh, oh, oh, oh
                     Db
I‘m thinking way too much
Db  Ebm     Bbm
Oh, oh, oh, oh
                 Db
But I can’t help myself

Db  Ebm     Bbm
Oh, oh, oh, oh
                        Db  Ebm Bbm
I don’t want to be like them
Bbm
And I know


[Chorus]
             Ab
We’re barely alive
       Fm                 Bbm
Are we all just spinning around?
              Ab
I’m out of my mind
       Fm        Bbm
When I think out loud
                 Ab                     Fm
The heart of the moment we’re lost in a place
                Bbm               Db
I’m caught in a corner and saving face
             Ab
We’re barely alive
       Fm                 Bbm
Are we all just spinning around?
