Khalid - Alive

[ intro ]
| G#m | D#m | G#m | Bmaj7 |

[ verse 1 ]
G#m
unread texts and missed calls
D#m
told everyone i turned my phone off
G#m Bmaj7
didn’t ask for help and now i’m lost
G#m
life comes in phases
D#m
consequences and mistakes
G#m Bmaj7
i’m sorry that it’s taken me so long

[ pre – chorus 1 ]
E D#m
mister , mister , please let off your power
G#m Bmaj7
give me half an hour , or better yet , a few
E D#m
only sweet until it all goes sour
G#m Bmaj7
but life is what you make it , and then there’s more to lose

[ chorus ]
E F#
gate keeper , can you show me more to life?
B B/A# G#m
lately i’ve been living out of spite
E F#
grim reaper , just give me one more night
B B/A# G#m
i need another chance to say goodbye
Em B Bmaj7
i shouldn’t have to die to feel alive

[ verse 2 ]
G#m
here’s the thing with disappearing
D#m
you can yell and no one hears ya
G#m Bmaj7
times like this , i need a ear
G#m
when i finally have so much to say
D#m
wish i could see your face , oh
G#m Bmaj7
and do what i have to stop the tears

[ pre – chorus 2 ]
E D#m
sister , sister , please know that i’m sorry
G#m Bmaj7
i wish you could’ve stopped me from falling off the hill
E D#m
only sweet until it all goes sour
G#m Bmaj7
my path is what you make it until it gets too real

[ chorus ]
