Sound of Surviving Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]They tol[G]d me

[Verse 2]
[G]I'd never get to tell my [D]story
Too many bullet [Bm]holes
[D]It would take [A]a miracle
[D]These [G]voices
Inside my head like [D]poison
Trying to steal my [Bm]hope
Silencing [A]my soul

[Verse 3]
But my [Em]story is only now be[D]ginning
Don't try to write my ending
[G]Nobody gets to [A]sing my son[Em]g[D]

[Verse 4]
This is [D]the sound of [G]surviving
This is my [Bm]farewell [A]to [G]fear[D]
This is my whole heart deciding
I'm [G]still here, [Bm]I'm [A]still [G]here[Esus4]
[Em]And [D]I'm not done f[G]ighting
This is the [A]sound of [Asus4]surviv in[A]g
[D]

[Verse 5]
These [G]pieces

[Verse 6]
The ones that left me [D]bleeding
Intended for my [Bm]pain
Became the gift [A]You gave me
I [G]gathered those pieces into a [D]mountain
My [A]freedom is [Bm]in view
I'm stronger than [A]I knew

[Verse 7]
And [Em]this [Esus4]hill is not the one [A]I die [D]on
I'm going to lift my eyes [G]an d
I'm going to keep [A]on climbing

[Verse 8]
[D]This is the sound of sur[G]viving
This is my [Bm]farewell [A]to [G]fear[D]
This is my whole heart deciding
I'm [G]still here, [Bm]I'm [A]still [G]here[Esus4]
[Em]And [D]I'm not done f[G]ighting
This is [Asus4]the sound of
[D]surviv[A]ing
[D]I'm still here

[Verse 9]
[G]
Say it to [D]the ache, lying [Bm]there [Em]awake
Say it to your [D]tears
I'm still [G]here
Say it to the [D]pain, say it to the [Bm]rain
Say it to your [A]fear[D]

[Verse 10]
This is [D]the sound of [G]surviving
This is my [Bm]farewell [A]to [G]fear[D]
This is my whole heart deciding
I'm [G]still here, [Bm]I'm [A]still [G]here[Em][Esus4]
And [D]I'm not done [G]fighting
No, [Asus4]I'm not done fighting[A][Esus4]
[Em]And [D]I am still rising, r[G]ising
I'm [A]still [Em]rising
And [D]I'm not done [G]fighting
This is [Asus4]the sound [A]of surviv[D]ing
