Verse 1
  D                  A          Bm
There's a rhythm in rush these days
          Bm                         A           Gadd9
Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade
 D                     A            Bm
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
     Bm                        A         Gadd9
In a world gone shallow, in a world gone lean
 
 D                          A          Bm
Sometimes there's things a man cannot know
 Bm                        A          Gadd9
Gears won't turn and the leaves won't grow
         D                   A      Bm
There's no place to run and no gasoline
Bm                          A         Gadd9
Engine won't turn and the train won't leave
Bm                           A         Gadd9
Engines won't turn and the train won't leave
 
 
Chorus
D       Em       D/F#  Gadd9
I will stay with you tonight
 A                      Bm7      Em
Hold you close 'til the morning light
        D       Em     D/F#     Gadd9
In the morning watch a new day rise
       A                   Bm7   Em
We'll do whatever just to stay alive
       A                   Bm7  Gadd9
We'll do whatever just to stay alive
 
 
Verse 2
          D                 A      Bm
Well the way I feel is the way I write
   Bm                              A      Gadd9
It isn't like the thoughts of the man who lies
  D                       A       Bm
There is a truth and it's on our side
Bm              A        Gadd9
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
 Bm                       A       Gadd9
Look into the sun as the new days rise
 
 
 
 
Chorus
    D       Em      D/F#  Gadd9
And I will wait for you tonight
        A                      Bm     Em
You're here forever and you're by my side
D          Em     D/F#   Gadd9
I've been waiting all my life
    A                       Bm      Em
To feel your heart as it's keeping time
       A                   Bm   Gadd9
We'll do whatever just to stay alive
