[Intro]
D# B C# x2

[Verse 1]
                D#
I'm six feet under
         B       C#
Like I'm buried alive
              D#
we're so game over
            B           C#
But we keep holding the line
                   D#
You fight me and I fight back
             D#
And when you come back
B                      C#
we get up and we do it again
                 D#
I'm turning to a shadow
        D#
I can't let go
            B
Though it's wrong,
                     C#
I don't want it to end

[Bridge]
D#
Better safe than sorry
Better safe than sorry
Felt so right now what are we?
So turn it up, turn it up,
turn it up

[Chorus]
             D#
We're on the edge
            B
We're miles apart
                 F#
And I'm six feet under
                C#
Diggin' down my heart
             D#
We're on the edge
                B
We keep falling down
                  F#
'Til I'm six feet under
                C#
Diggin' down my heart
                  D#   B C#
'Til I'm six feet under
                  D#   B C#
'Til I'm six feet under
                  D#   B C#
'Til I'm six feet under

[Verse 2]
                D#
We're in a maze now
        B              C#
Playing arcade and I'm lost
             D#
Counting our days now
                  B
I'm in a straight jacket
               C#
no matter the cost
                   D#
You fight me and I fight back
             D#
And when you come back
