A D 
Breaking in a sweat 
A D 
Like a bomb threat 
A D                  G A 
Use your silhouette, faded out 

A D 
Nothing left to lose 
A D 
Detonate the fuse 
A D                   G A 
Another break and you fall out 

A D 
Getting off a binge 
A D 
Get a second wind 
A D                   G A 
Another promise, just make a change 

A D 
Got a broken wing 
A D 
Hear the angels sing 
A D                    G A 
With a signal that's out of range 
G A           G A 
make a change, make a change 

D             G   A  D 
Carpe diem, a battle cry

aren't we all too young to die 
D                   G  A  D 
Ask for reason, and no reply

aren't we all too young to die 

G        D 
Making a living 
G        D 
Making a killing 
G            D 
What's worth forgiving 
A 
A life 

A D 
And the other night 
A D 
Barely scraping by 
A D           G  A 
Dominated by passer-by's

Feeling out of luck 
When the traffic's stuck 
And you're feeling so left behind

Getting off a binge 
Get a second wind 
Another promise, just make a change

Got a broken wing 
Hear the angels sing 
With a signal that's out of range

any change any change

Making a killing 
What's worth forgiving 
A life/alive

Carpe diem, a battle cry 
are/aren't we all too young to die 
Ask for reason, and no reply 
Aren't we all too young to die 

Carpe diem, a battle cry 
are/aren't we all too young to die 
Ask for reason, and no reply 
Are/aren't we all too young to die
