[Verse 1]
C              Am
Lights are on, everything's
the same
E
The feelings gone
                        C
Nothin' left to Lose if nobody's
warned
      Am                  E
I can see it in your eyes tonight

[Verse 2]
C            Am
Holdin' on, hard to stay
                    E
inside when you're born to run
It's hard to feel alive
            C
when hopes dead and gone
       Am                   E
I can see it in your eyes tonight

[Chorus]
         C        Am
And I'm feelin', feelin'
                    E
like I'm ready for somethin'
Too much time
                 C
just hangin' on nothin'
Am
Tryin' to fight the
          E
fire that forgot him
C          Am
And everyone, I see now
E
Maybe the same as me
              C              Am
'Cause we're feelin', we're feelin'
                     E
like we're ready for somethin'

[Verse 3]
C
The end in sight
Am
Every bit of blood is
        E
pourin' up inside
Heart beatin' out my chest,
           C
leavin' me paralysed
        Am
Got to get out, get out
E
Somehow, somehow

[Chorus]
        C        Am
And I'm feelin', feelin'
                   E
like I'm ready for somethin'
Too much time just
            C
hangin' on nothin'
Am
Tryin' to fight the
          E
fire that forgot him
C          Am
And everyone, I see now
E
Maybe the same as me
              C              Am
'Cause we're feelin', we're feelin'
                     E
like we're ready for somethin'
E

Too much time just hangin' on nothin'
Am                            E
