Tom : G
C D
[Verse 1]
C
We are lost and lonely people
D
And we're lookin’ for a reason and it's alright
C
So let's celebrate the dreamers
D
We embrace the space between us ’cause it's alright
C
We're all in this boat together
D
And we're sailin' toward the future and it's alright
C
We can't make the whole thing better
D
We're the authors of forever and it’s alright
[Chorus]
C
We arе on born on our own
And we die on our own
D
And we’rе here to make meanin'
Of what happens in between
C
We could hate, we could love
We could doubt, we could trust
D
But we’re here to make meanin'
For as long as we're breathin'
[Próxima Parte]
C
And it’s alright
[Post-Chorus]
D
Wherever you are, it's alright
C
Whoever you are, it's alright
[Bridge]
D
If you find love, it feels like it's the first time
C
God only knows it will be the last time
D
If you find love, it feels like it's the first time
[Próxima Parte]
God only knows
[Verse 2]
C D
Where there's light, there must be a shadow
C D
Cloudy skies and rain make a rainbow
C
We are builders, we are breakers
D
We are givers, we are takers and it's alright
C
We are seven billion stories
D
And we know the faith and glory and it's alright
N.C
Alright, oh
[Chorus]
C
We arе on born on our own
And we die on our own
