[Verse 1]
(1st half same as Intro)
D
Been fighting things that I can't see, yeah
Like voices coming from the inside of me, yeah
G
Like doing things I find hard to believe in
Am I ghost or am I dreaming?
Bm
I've been awake for an hour or so
Gsus2
Checking for a pulse but I just don't know
Bm
Am I man if I feel like ghost?
Gsus2
The stranger in the mirror is wearing my clothes
 
[Chorus]
D
No I'm not alright
A
I know that I'm not right
Bm
The steering wheel don't mean you can drive
Gsus2
A warm body doesn't mean I'm alive
No I'm not alright
I know that I'm not right
Feel like I travel but I never arrive
I want to thrive, not just survive
 
[Interlude]
(Same as Intro)
 
[Verse 2]
(1st half same as Intro)
I come alive when I hear you singing
But lately I haven't been hearing a thing, yeah
I get the feeling that I'm between
A machine and a man who only looks like me
I try and hide it, not let it show
But deep down inside me I just don't know
Am I man if I feel like a hoax?
The stranger in the mirror is wearing my clothes
 
[Chorus]
D
No I'm not alright
A
I know that I'm not right
Bm
The steering wheel don't mean you can drive
Gsus2
A warm body doesn't mean I'm alive
No I'm not alright
I know that I'm not right
Feel like I travel but I never arrive
I want to thrive, not just survive
 
[Bridge]
Esus2      Bm*             Asus2
I'm always close and never enough
I get so down, but I won't give up
I get so down, but I won't give up
I get so down, but I won't give up
 
[Verse 3]
(1st half same as Intro)
Been fighting things that I can't see, yeah
Like voices coming from the inside of me, yeah
Like doing things I find hard to believe in
Am I myself or am I dreaming?
Bm      Gsus2   Bm      Gsus2
Thrive, thrive, thrive, thrive
 
[Chorus]

Accurate tab, but its nearly impossible for me to stretch on the A and Gsus2. Jon is in the habit of writing difficult songs. They sound amazing, but you have to be pretty good to play them
