Intro: Am - G - Am - G
Am G
I kept the right ones out and let the wrong ones in
C F
Had an angel of mercy to see me through all my sins
Fm/G# C/G
There were times in my life when I was goin` insane
D/F# F
Tryin` to walk through the pain
Am G
When I lost my grip and I hit the floor
C
Yeah, I thought I could leave
F
But couldn`t get out the door
Fm/G# C/G
I was so sick and tired of livin` a lie
D/F# F
I was wishin` that I would die
Chorus:
C Em F
It`s amazing, with the blink of an eye
Em G
You finally see the light
C Em F
It`s amazing when the moment arrives
Em G
That you know you`ll be alright
F Em D
It`s amazing and I`m sayin` a prayer
G C
For the desperate hearts tonight
Am D
That one last shot`s a permanent vacation
F C
And how high can you fly with broken wings?
Am D
Life`s a journey not a destination
F G
And I just can`t tell just what tomorrow brings
Am G
You have to learn to crawl before you learn to walk
C F
But I just couldn`t listen to all that righteous talk
Fm/G# C/G
I was out on the street, just tryin` to survive

Scratchin` to stay alive
