Afraid To Die

[Verso 1]
 
G                 Am       Em 
You know too much about the girl 
             C 
I buried at 21 
            Fmaj7 
Did no one tell you that 
          G 
Shes now gone? 
                 Am       Em 
She was tired of bleeding out 
                     C 
And staining anyone around 
            Fmaj7 
To drown the sound, 
             G 
It wore her down 

G                 Am   Em 
She pushed away all her friends 
                 C 
Isolated herself again 
              Fmaj7         G 
And called it freedom to pretend 
                       Am     Em 
To her parents she was doing fine 
                                 C 
While she sedated herself in the night 
                  Fmaj7              G 
With screens, and smoke, and cheap wine 
 


[Refrão]
 
C            Am 
So I familiarise 
                Em 
How it feels to die 
                         Fmaj7 
I've tried drown out the sound for so long 
C                Am 
Like it's normalised, 
                  Em 
Just to smile and lie 
                       Fmaj7 
It's like I left the extractor fan on 
C 
I'm hoping one day I might 
Am 
Try and fight back the light 
Em           Fmaj7               C  Am 
I'll do anything just to feel alive 
                     G 
I wanna be afraid to die 
 


[Verso 2]
 
G                       Am       Em 
Dreaming of waking in a hospital bed 
                            C 
To affirm that anybody would care 
          Fmaj7                 G 
I think so casually about my death 
                           Am        Em 
Grieving a youth that was recklessly spent 
                              C 
Wasted potential laying on the cement 
          Fmaj7                 G 
The sirens loud, it wears me down 
 


[Refrão]
 
C            Am 
So I familiarise 
                Em 
How it feels to die 
                         Fmaj7 
I've tried drown out the sound for so long 
C                Am 
Like it's normalised, 
                  Em 
Just to smile and lie 
                       Fmaj7 
It's like I left the extractor fan on 
C 
I'm hoping one day I might 
Am 
Try and fight back the light 
Em           Fmaj7               C  Am 
I'll do anything just to feel alive 
                     G 
I wanna be afraid to die

[Ponte]
 
       G 
I used love as lessons, 
Am 
Mourned for when I was wise 
            Em 
I grew from what had killed my innocence 
      Fmaj7 
Into a rational mind 
               G 
Walked past my wasted potential and 
IAm 
Didnt bat an eye 
Em                 Fmaj7 
And in a moment, I realised 

                G 
I've changed my mind 
              Em 
I'm afraid to die 
              C 
I'm afraid to die 
                Fmaj7 
I've changed my mind 
              G 
I'm afraid to die!
