Intro
C#5 Bm C# Bm
[Verse]
C#
What makes me think that it'll all work out in the end?
Bm
Afraid to feel bad, better off to try and pretend
C#m C#
I'm immortal, immune to all that is wrong
Bm
Just keep on wishing, crossing my fingers so long
C#m C# F#m
Is this helping? I'm growing weaker each day
Bm
Can't stop whining, still afraid of what I might say
D C# A Bm
Or reactions, that control us one and all
[Chorus]
C#m A
It's mine, it's pure and
E B
As decent as I can make myself
C#m A
Inside, we all know
E B
Only the strong survive
[Verse]
C#m
So now I'm bleeding on myself, yes, once again
Bm Bm7
Seems I trusted another deceitful friend
C#m
My fault, I should've known the deal
Bm7 C#m
Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer for real
C# C#m
Seems easy, but nothing could be so hard
Bm
Trying to guess life's dealing, what's the next card?
C#m D Bm
I'm surely folding, I don't like this hand at all
[Chorus]
C#m A
It's mine, it's pure and
E B
As decent as I can make myself
C#m A
Inside, we all know
E B
Only the strong survive
[Solo]
C#m C# C#m C#
[Bridge]
C#m A
Maybe things happen for a reason
C#m
And wherein lies the answer
G#m
To overcome the grieving
A C#m
Of life's unruly lessons
A
I'm handed in succession
F#m G#m A
It builds my pain which makes me strong
[Chorus]
C#m A
It's mine, it's pure and
E B
As decent as I can make myself
C#m A
Inside, we all know
E B
Only the strong survive
C#m A
It's mine, it's pure and
E B
As decent as I can make myself
C#m A
Inside, we all know
E B
Only the strong survive
C#m A
It's mine, it's pure and
E B
As decent as I can make myself
C#m A
Inside, we all know
E B
Only the strong survive
C#m A E
You will survive
B C#m
and I will survive
A E
and we will survive
