A D A D A D A D
[VERSE 1]
A D
Well I woke up to the sound of silence and guns
A D
were cutting like knives in a fist fight
A
And I found you with a bottle of wine
D A D
your head in the curtains and heart like the 4th of July
A
You swore and said we are not
B
we are not shining stars
C#
This i know
D2
cause i never said we are
A
Though I've never been through hell like that
D A D
I've closed enough windows to know you can never look back
[CHORUS]
A D E
If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone
A D E
Carry on
A D E
May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground
A D E
Carry on
A D A D
Carry on carry on
[VERSE 2]
A D
So I met up with some friends at the edge of the night
A D
at a bar off 75
A D
And we talked and talked about how our parents will die
A D
All our neighbors and wives
[PRE CHORUS]
A
But i'd like to think
B
I can cheat it all
C# D2
to make up for the times i've been cheated on
A
And it's nice to know
B
when i was left for dead
C#
I was found and I know not these streets
D2 E2
I am not the ghost you want to be
[CHORUS]
A D E
If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone
A D E
Carry on
A D E
May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground
A D E
Carry on
E

[BRIDGE]
D A E
My head is on fire, but my legs they're fine
D A E
Cause after all, they are mine
D A E
Lay your clothes down on the floor, close the door, hold the phone
D E
show me how, no one's ever gonna stop us now
A B C# D2
A B C# D2
[PRE-CHORUS]
A B
Cause we are, we are shining stars
C# D2
We are invincible, we are who we are
A B
On our darkest day, when we're miles away
C# D2 E2
Sun will come, we will find our way home
[CHORUS]
A D E
If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone
A D E

A D E
May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground
A D E
