[Verse 1]
Em D C Em
I had a purpose then, pursing the path to catalyze our dream
Em D C D
But it’s a winding road, where you stumble and sway your way amongst the crowd
[Verse]
Em D
Don’t get me wrong, I would never go back in time – or play God
C D
But is there a way I could earn back that endless sky?
Em
I can see it in your eyes
D
Don’t give me that look – ‘cause, you see
C D
You’re the last person I need to pity me
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Cryin’ won’t pave a way to forgiveness
D
Every sin you carve is ever lasting
Em
I’m lost in this maze of emotion
A
Who am I waiting for?
C
Now, these once blank pages of my notebook
D Em
Become a plea to regain fallen virtue
Em D C
All this time, I’ve been trying to run away from my own reality
[Chorus]
Em D
We’ll live for something as soon as we find it
C D Em
I’ve forgotten, please remind me, as day turns darkness
Em D Em
Expired chances - but we gotta make it through again
D
‘cause there’s no where else to run
[Chorus]
Em D
There’s still so much here, a life worth living
C A
And with time you’ll drown the feeling out (I’M ON THE WAY)
Em D Em
It’s so nostalgic, maybe all the love is worth the pain
[Verse 2]
Em D
It’s not a lack of pride,
C Em
But I know I’m to blame, so I apologize
Em D
I don’t know what to say
C Em
But I wish I could free the worry from your eyes
[Chorus]
Em D
All we’ve been through and all that’s yet to come
C D
And all that we have become will remain as we roll the dice
Em D
Once more, I close my eyes from the sight
C D
But it’s all a futile fight, for it’s all etched inside my mind
[Pre-Chorus]
C
The invite of a white lie,
D
Some can’t resist the call to join in
Em A
But still, I thought I knew you better than to give into pressure
C
Once fury thorns in your heart,
D
The fire’s quick to consume you
Em A
And what comes from those ashes – is your reality
[Chorus]
Em D
We’ll live for something as soon as we find it
C D
May we come across that future
Em D
Can you hear me? I’m screaming
Em
Expired chances,
D Em
But we gotta make it through again
D
‘cause there’s no where else to run
[Post-Chorus]
Em D
It’s through your kindness, I’ll always be grateful
C A
And I’ll strive to become stronger (I’M ON THE WAY)
Em D Em
I’ll carry onward, gaining friend and foe along the way
[Bridge]
F
I try to make sense of why
G Am
We can’t figure how to unlock the next door
F
We bleed on this path we lead
G Am
But we cannot turn back, cause our story’s begun
F Am F Am
Open up your eyes - Open up your eyes
[Chorus]
Em D
There’s still so much here, a life worth living
C A
And with time I’ll drown the feeling out
Em
I need to right all my wrongs
D C
And finish all things I’ve left undone
Em
We’ve only just begun
[Post-Chorus]
Em D
We’ll live for something as soon as we find it
C D
May we come across that future
Em D
Can you hear me? I’m screaming
Em
Expired chances,
D Em
But we gotta make it through again
D
‘cause there’s no where else to run
[Outro]
Em D
It’s through your kindness, I’ll always be grateful
C A
And I’ll strive to become stronger (I’M ON THE WAY)
Em D Em
It’s so nostalgic, maybe all the love is worth the pain
