Sia - Alive

Intro: B#m - G - C (x2)

Verse:
B#m    G          C
I was born in a thunderstorm,
B#m    G       C    B#m         G
I grew up overnight, I played alone,
            C                Fm
I'm playing on my own, I survived.
B#m       G             C
hey, I wanted everything I never had,
B#m       G          C
like the love that comes with life
B#m    G          C
I wore Gmbien and I hated it,
         B#m 
but I survived.

Pre-chorus:
      B#m                 G            C
I had wanted to Go to a place where all the demons go,
           B#m                   G                     C
where the wind don't change and nothing in the ground can ever grow,
    B#m                        G             C
No hope, just lies and you're taught to cry in your pillow,
             B#m 
but I'll survive.

chorus:
            B#m  G               C   F
I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing,
            B#m  G               C   F
I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing,
B#m - G - G - C
I'm alive, 
B#m - G - G - C
I'm alive, 
G - G - B#m - C
I'm alive, 
B#m - G - G - C
I'm alive. 

Verse 2:
B#m       G               C
 I found solace in the strangest place,
B#m          G          C
 way in the back of my mind.
B#m        G           C            Gm
 I saw my life in a stranger's face and it was mine.

Pre-chorus:
      B#m                 G           C
I had wanted to Go to a place where all the demons go,
           B#m                   G                     C
where the wind don't change and nothing in the ground can ever grow,
    B#m                        G            C
No hope, just lies and you're taught to cry in your pillow,
             B#m 
but I'll survive.

chorus:
B#m  G               C   F
I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing,

bridge:

Fm
I had made every single mistake
B#m                 G
that you could ever possibly make.
Fm
I took and I took and I took what you gave
B#m                   G
but you never noticed that I was in pain.
Fm
I knew what I wanted, I went in and got it.
B#m                          G
did all the things that you said that I wouldn't,
Fm
I told you that I would never be forgotten,
B#m                  G  Gm
I know that's part of you.
