[Verse 1]
 
Em    D          C
I was born in a thunderstorm
Em     B      C
I grew up overnight
Em        Am
I played alone
            C
I'm playing on my own
Am
I survived
Em
Hey
Em        Am          C
I wanted everything I never had
Em        B               C
Like the love that comes with light
Em     D          C
I wore envy and I hated that
B
But I survived
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
Em                                              C
I had a one-way ticket to a place where all the demons go
Em
Where the wind don't change
     B                        C
And nothing in the ground can ever grow
   Em
No hope, just lies  
            B                     C
And you're taught to cry in your pillow
B
But I'll survive
 
 
[Chorus]
 
             Em
I'm still breathing
            C
I'm still breathing
            Em
I'm still breathing
            Am
I'm still breathing
     Em  D  G  C
I'm alive
     Em  D  G  C
I'm alive
     G   D  Em C
I'm alive
     Em  D  G  C
I'm alive
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Em                      C
I found solace in the strangest place
Em          C
Way in the back of my mind
Em    B            C
I saw my life in a stranger's face
B
And it was mine
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
Em                                              C
I had a one-way ticket to a place where all the demons go
Em
Where the wind don't change
     B                        C
And nothing in the ground can ever grow
   Em
No hope, just lies  
            B                     C
And you're taught to cry in your pillow
B
But I'll survive
 
 
[Chorus]
 
             Em
I'm still breathing
            C
I'm still breathing
            Em
I'm still breathing
            Am
I'm still breathing
     Em  D  G  C
I'm alive
     Em  D  G  C
I'm alive
     G   D  Em C
I'm alive
     Em  D  G  C
I'm alive
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
 
Em                    D
You took it all, but I'm still breathing
G                     C
You took it all, but I'm still breathing
Em                    D
You took it all, but I'm still breathing
G                     C
You took it all, but I'm still breathing
Em                    D
You took it all, but I'm still breathing
G                     C
You took it all, but I'm still breathing
Em                    D
You took it all, but I'm still breathing
G                     C
You took it all, but I'm still breathing
 
 
[Bridge]
 
Em
I had made every single mistake
                              D
That you could ever possibly make
Am
I took and I took and I took what you gave
    Em                     D
But you never noticed that I was in pain
                         Am
I knew what I wanted; I went in and got it
Em                           D
Did all the things that you said that I wouldn't
Am
I told you that I would never be forgotten
    Em              D   B
And all in spite of you
 
 
[Chorus]
 
             Em
I'm still breathing
            C
I'm still breathing
            Em
I'm still breathing
            Am
I'm still breathing
      Em  D  G  C
I'm alive (You took it all, but I'm still breathing)
 
(You took it all, but I'm still breathing)
      Em  D  G  C
I'm alive (You took it out, but I'm still breathing)
 
(You took it all, but I'm still breathing)
     Em  D  G  C
I'm alive (You took it out, but I'm still breathing)
 
(You took it all, but I'm still breathing)
     B
I'm alive
 
 
[Outro]
 
     Em  D  G  C
I'm alive
     Em  D  G  C
I'm alive
     G   D  Em C
I'm alive
     Em  D  G  C
I'm alive

The last line of the first verse is: I wore Envy and I hated that But I survived And also, for all the pre-choruses, the first line is: I had a one way ticket to a place where all the demons go Other than that, good tab!
