F 
G 
F 
G 
Used to form a line,
F 
G 
as if we were waiting to die
F 
G 
As if we couldn't have,
C 
G 
if it wasn't anything we wouldn't try
C 
G 
To prove ourselves we'd hurt ourselves
C 
G 
I was feeling so bad I never felt the sting
C 
G 
Then you showed me how numbers
C 
Are much more
G 
than just accounting money
D 
G 
So I stopped and counted my lives,
Am 
and oh, number eight
G 
D 
is about ready to die
You and I, showed me the way
G 
Am 
C 
to expand my chances every day
Em 
D 
You opened my eyes
C 
G 
to a world that has a better side
Em 
D 
C 
I even believe there's one in me
Em 
D 
I owe you my life
C 
We were breaking down,
G 
I was trying to drown
Em 
D 
But you opened my eyes,
C 
F 
G 
C 
G 
now I see
C 
G 
Old enough to smoke,
C 
G 
but I was still too young to vote
C 
G 
I kept the candles burning always
C 
G 
and some hands around my throat
C 
G 
I still blurred from the night before,
C 
G 
but you kept us focused on the board
C 
G 
Gave me that unlikely chance,
C 
G 
for the first time something
made some sense
D 
So I lost the stare
G 
Am 
that I'd used to con vince my prey
G 
D 
I  had nothing to lose,
G 
what I lost I never won back
Am 
C 
And I thank you for giving me that
Em 
D 
You opened my eyes
C 
G 
to a world that has a  better side
Em 
D 
C 
Even believes there's one in me
Em 
D 
I owe you my life
C 
We were breaking down,
G 
I was trying to drown
Em 
D 
But you opened my eyes,
C 
G 
C 
G 
C 
now I see
G 
C 
G 
F 
G 
Knocked me out of my seat,
F 
G 
shoved me in the waiting deep
D 
G 
Showed me nothing's over our heads
D 
G 
C 
till the day we pronounce our sales day
Em 
D 
You opened my eyes
C 
G 
to a world that has a bad -ass side
Em 
D 
C 
Even believe there's one in me
Em 
D 
God, all you've my life
C 
We were breaking down,
G 
I was trying to drown
Em 
D 
C 
But you opened my eyes, now I see
Em 
D 
C 
You opened my eyes, now I see
