  I stand a hundred feet
Bm                A
  But I fall when I'm around you

Pre-Chorus:
Em       G
  Show me an open door

 Tell me that I'm not crazy

    G              Bm7
Consuming all the air inside my lungs
 D                A
Ripping all the skin from off my bones
G                Bm7
I'm prepared to sacrifice my life
          D            A
I would gladly do it twice
    G              Bm7
Consuming all the air inside my lungs
 D                A
Ripping all the skin from off my bones
G                Bm7
I'm prepared to sacrifice my life
          D            A
I would gladly do it twice
