Pre-verse: E Don't wanna live as an untold story Rather go out in a blaze of glory A I can't hear you, I don't fear you Verse 1: E I'll live now cause the bad die last Dodging bullets with your broken past A B I can't hear you, I don't fear you now Abm Dbm Wrapped in your regret D A What a waste of blood and sweat B Oh oh oh... Chorus: E I wanna taste love and pain I wanna feel pride and shame Dbm I don't wanna take my time I don't wanna waste one line Gbm I wanna live better days Never look back and say A It could have been me B It could have been me Yeah Pre-verse: E Don't wanna live as an unsung melody I'd rather listen to the silence telling me A I can't hear you, I won't fear you Verse 2: E Don't wanna wake up on Monday morning The thought of work is getting my skin crawling A B I can't fear you, I don't hear you now Abm Dbm Wrapped in your regret D A What a waste of blood and sweat B Oh oh oh... Chorus (x3): E I wanna taste love and pain I wanna feel pride and shame Dbm I don't wanna take my time I don't wanna waste one line Gbm I wanna live better days Never look back and say A It could have been me B It could have been me Yeah This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.
