	        G                             C 
 I know that I fucked up when I 
                              G 
Told you I'm afraid of heights 
                                D 
It made you wanna test my courage 
                                 G 
You made me climb a cliff at night 
                                  C 
You wanted me to jump and I declined 
                               G 
You called me a coward, I replied 
                           D 
'I don't wanna live forever 
                              C 
But I don't wanna die tonight' 

                               Em 
When the black water ate you up 
                             G 
Like a sugar cube in a teacup 
                               D 
I got the point you were makin' 
                                      C 
When I held my breath till you came up 

G                                    C 
 There's been a run of fires downtown 
                                G 
On half-built construction sites 
                                  D 
I know you never liked a townhouse 
                                    G 
I've seen you climb a crane at night 
                            C 
If they ever catch you at it 
                             G 
I know you'd want me to be proud 

That you took a rich man's dream 
D 
 And brought it with you on your way down 

C                                         Am 
 'Cause one man's dream is another man's death 
                             G 
I remember when you told me that 
                                      D 
Didn't know what to say, so I just laughed 
                             C 
But now I know it's not funny 

G 
 I never rode a motorcycle 
C 
 I've never smoked a cigarette 
G 
 I wanna live a vibrant life 
D 
 But I wanna die a boring death 
G 
 I know I was a disappointment 
C 
 Know you wanted me to take a risk 
G                                   D 
 Not everybody gets the chance to live 

A life that isn't dangerous 

Em                     C 
  You called me a crybaby 
                                G 
But you're the one who got teary 
                        D 
Tellin' me what you believe 
                        Em 
How we're stuck in entropy 
                     C 
How it hurts to hope 
                          G 
Oh, it hurts to hope for more 
                           D 
Oh, it hurts to hope the future 
                       C 
Will be better than before
