[Verse 1]
G#m F
I was born dying, but I was born to be someone
G#m F D#m E
No time to lose, I’m only here for so long
G#m F# B E
My days have a number, but numbers only matter so much
G#m F# C#
Right now I’m breathing, I feel like I was born to love, oh
[Chorus]
E
(Oh-oh)This is what I want to be remembered for
F# E
This is what I want to be remembered for
E F#
Everything else, you can set it on fire
E
(Oh-oh)I want to still be standing when it falls apart
F#
I want to be a shoulder for the broken heart
E F#
It’s what I want to be remembered for
[Interlude]
G#m F# E
[Verse 2]
G#m F# B E
I was born trying to prove that I could be someone
G#m F#m D#m E
I lost that fight before the bell had ever been rung
B F# G#m
I threw in the towel, I dropped my fist
E
Gave up the life I never missed
F#m
Love lit the fire now I feel it in my chest
[Chorus]
E F#
(Oh-oh) This is what I want to be remembered for
E
This is what I want to be remembered for
F#
Everything else, you can set it on fire
E F#
(Oh-oh) I want to still be standing when it falls apart
E
I want to be a shoulder for the broken heart
F#
It’s what I want to be remembered for
[Interlude]
G#m F#
[Solo]
E F#
(x4)
G#
[Bridge]
F# E
And I don’t have to be somebody
F# E
As long as I am with somebody
F# C#
Who knows that I can be somebody
[Chorus]
E F#
This is what I want to be remembered for
E
This is what I want to be remembered for
F#
Everything else you can set it on fire
E F#
(Oh-oh) I want to still be standing when it falls apart
B E
I want to be a shoulder for the broken heart
F#
It’s what I want to be remembered for
G#
(This is what I want to be)
E F#
This is what I want to be remembered for
G#m
This is what I want to be remembered for
D#m
Everything else, you can set it on fire, fire (want to be remembered for)
E F#
Don’t want to be defined by all these things I’ve done
E
I’d rather be remembered by the ones I love
F#
This is what I want to be remembered for
G# G#m
(Want to be remembered for)
[Inerlude]
B E Dm E B
[Outro]
B
And when the day is finally here
G#m B
To leave behind these broken years
E D#m
I want my family by my side
E B
I hope they’ll know how hard I’ve tried
G#m
To live in love
B
To love in depth
Emaj7 B
Let wonder take away my breath
E B
To give until there’s nothing more
E B F# E B
This what I want to be remembered for
