A       C#m
I see this life like a swinging vine,
E
Swing my heart across the line.
B
In my face is flashing signs,
A
Seek it out and ye shall find.

C#m
Old, but I’m not that old.
E
Young, but I’m not that bold.
    B
And I don’t think the world is sold,
A                       C#m
I’m just doing what we’re told.

   E                   B
   I feel something so right
             A      C#m
   Doing the wrong thing.
       E                   B
   And I feel something so wrong
              A
   Doing the right thing.
              A
   I couldn’t lie, couldn’t lie, couldn’t lie;
                                           C#m
   Everything that kills me makes me feel alive.
