  ENTERLUDE

F#

Bm
  When I offer you survival
G
 You say it's hard enough to live
Em                             G
  It's not so bad, it's not so bad
A                Bm                 G  A 
 How do you know that you're right?


  VERSE I

   Bm
I awoke on the roadside
       G
In the land of the free ride
            Em
And I can't pull it any longer
    Bm
The sun is beating down my neck

     Bm
So I ran with the devil
       G
Left a trail of excuses
       Em
Like a stone on the water
    Bm
The elements decide my fate
         G    D    A      D
Watch it go . . . "bling"


  CHORUS 

D                A
When I offer you survival
G
You say it's hard enough to live
D                  A
Don't tell me that it's over
        G
Stand up, Poor and tired but more than this

D               A
How do you know that you're right?
              G
If you're not nervous anymore
D           A                G
It's not so bad, it's not so bad


  VERSE II

                          Bm
I feel my vision slipping in and out of focus
        G
But I'm pushing on for that horizon
            Em
I'm pushing on
                 Bm
Now I've got the blowing wind against my face


So you sling rocks at the rip tide
     G
Am I wrong or am I right?
          Em
I hit the bottom with a "huh!" - Quite strange
         Bm
I get my glory in the desert rain
         G    D    A      D
Watch it go . . . "bling"


  CHORUS

D                A
When I offer you survival
G
You say it's hard enough to live
D                  A
Don't tell me that it's over
        G
Stand up, poor and tired but more than this

D               A
How do you know that you're right?
              G
If you're not nervous anymore
D           A                G
It's not so bad, it's not so bad


BRIDGE

D
Higher and higher

We're gonna take it

Down to the wire

We're gonna make it
G          A    D  Bm
Out of the fire
G          A      D
Higher and higher

D
Higher and higher

We're gonna take it

Down to the wire

We're gonna make it out
G    A  D  Bm
Whoa-oh-oh-oh! 
G          A      D
Higher and higher


  OUTRO

G        A       Bm
It ain't hard to hold
        F#m         G
When it shines like gold
         A      D
You'll remember me
