Verse 1:    

           E                                                  A    
Well, I woke up to the sound of silence and scars    
                              E          A    
Were cutting like knives in a fist fight,    
      E              
And I found you with a bottle of wine,    
     A                                                    E          A    
Your head in the curtains and heart like the 4th of July.    

                                E    
You swore and said, "We are not,    
                 F#m    
We are not shining stars."    
       G#m    
This I know.    
              A    
I never said we are.    

            E    
Though I've never been through hell like that,    
         A                                                         E            A       
I've closed enough windows to know you can never look back .   


                 E                                  A             B    
If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin' like a stone,    
          E                    A          B    
Carry on.    
                E                                     A                B    
May your path be the sound of your feet upon the ground.    
         E                    A          B    
Carry on.    
                 E          A          E          A    
Carry on, carry on.      

Verse 2:   
    

        E                                                             A    
So I met up with some friends at the edge of the night    
                  E          A    
At a bar off 75    
              E                                                            A    
And we talked and talked about how our parents will die,    
             E                    A    
All our neighbors and wives.    

Pre-chorus:   
    

           E    
But I'd like to think    
         F#m    
I can cheat it all    
            G#m                                     A    
To make up for the times I've been cheated on,    
              E    
And it's nice to know    
                  F#m    
When I was left for dead    
          G#m    
I was found and I don't roam these streets.    
         A                          B    
I am not the ghost you are to me.    


(This riff plays through the pre-chorus)    

   E                       F#m                     G#m    
       
   A                       E                       F#m    

   G#m                     A           B    

   

    
              E                               A                  B    
If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin' like a stone,    
      E                    A          B    
Carry on.    
                 E                                  A                     B    
May your path be the sound of your feet upon the ground,    
         E                    A          B    
Carry on.    
B    
Oh-oh-oh-oh      

Bridge:   
    

        A              E              B                
My head is on fire, but my legs, they're fine,    
            A                  E        B    
'Cause after all, they are mine.         
                 A        E                                       B    
Lay your clothes down on the floor, close the door, hold the phone,    
                A                     B    
Show me how. No one's ever gonna stop us now.

'Cause we are, we are shining stars,    
              G#m                  A    
We are invincible, we are who we are.    
             E                               F#m    
On our darkest day, when we're miles away    
             G#m               A                 B    
Sun will come, we will find our way home.
