[Verse 1]
  GI have lived with another's arms
Pulling me up till I learnt to sCtand
On my own two feet with my own ideas, and my own beliefs
  GHearts are broken, nations fall
Youth's bright burn, time eats it Call
But still it starts back up again, it never ends
[Pre-Chorus]
  GLook at me nAmow, I'm here before youEm  
I finally found the guts to start
With Gnothing to loseAm, nothing to hide
And Emeverything to proveC  
[Chorus]
  GBut it takes all you've got, all you're made of
And you learn that a soul has got to chCange
So you throw all your cards out the window
And carry on, making it up on the wGay
From the wound, you forget by tomorrow
To the countless doubts, the highs, the bClame
Till you learn how to love and to be loved
These are the days and you're living them your wGay
[Verse 2]
  GEvery time I try to find the right words
To describe the mess, make the sentence hCeard
I'd hit another wall, such a narrow mind, down we fall
  GSure it's a risk, to take it this far
But how else do you know what the limits aCre
What the dark feels like, I know the crowd holds court
But they're not always right
[Pre-Chorus]
  GLook at me nAmow, I'm here before youEm  
I finally found the guts to start
With Gnothing to loseAm, nothing to hide
And Emeverything to proveC  
[Chorus]
  GBut it takes all you've got, all you're made of
And you learn that a soul has got to chCange
So you throw all your cards out the window
And carry on, making it up on the wGay
From the wound, you forget by tomorrow
To the countless doubts, the highs, the bClame
Till you learn how to love and to be loved
These are the days and you're living them your wEmay
[Bridge]
Lights on, it's cAmlearer now
I wouldn't cChange a thing, I wouldn't change a thing
[Chorus]
  GBut it takes all you've got, all you're made of
And you learn that a soul has got to chCange
So you throw all your cards out the window
And carry on, making it up on the wGay
From the wound, you forget by tomorrow
To the countless doubts, the highs, the bClame
Till you learn how to love and to be loved
These are the days and you're living them your wGay

[Verse 1]

I have lived with another's arms

Pulling me up till I learnt to stand

On my own two feet with my own ideas, and my own beliefs

Hearts are broken, nations fall

Youth's bright burn, time eats it all

But still it starts back up again, it never ends

[Pre-Chorus]

G Am Em

Look at me now, I'm here before you

I finally found the guts to start

G Am

With nothing to lose, nothing to hide

Em C

And everything to prove

[Chorus]

But it takes all you've got, all you're made of

And you learn that a soul has got to change

So you throw all your cards out the window

And carry on, making it up on the way

From the wound, you forget by tomorrow

To the countless doubts, the highs, the blame

Till you learn how to love and to be loved

These are the days and you're living them your way

[Verse 2]

Every time I try to find the right words

To describe the mess, make the sentence heard

I'd hit another wall, such a narrow mind, down we fall

Sure it's a risk, to take it this far

But how else do you know what the limits are

What the dark feels like, I know the crowd holds court

But they're not always right

[Pre-Chorus]

G Am Em

Look at me now, I'm here before you

I finally found the guts to start

G Am

With nothing to lose, nothing to hide

Em C

And everything to prove

[Chorus]

But it takes all you've got, all you're made of

And you learn that a soul has got to change

So you throw all your cards out the window

And carry on, making it up on the way

From the wound, you forget by tomorrow

To the countless doubts, the highs, the blame

Till you learn how to love and to be loved

These are the days and you're living them your way

[Bridge]

Lights on, it's clearer now

I wouldn't change a thing, I wouldn't change a thing

[Chorus]

But it takes all you've got, all you're made of

And you learn that a soul has got to change

So you throw all your cards out the window

And carry on, making it up on the way

From the wound, you forget by tomorrow

To the countless doubts, the highs, the blame

Till you learn how to love and to be loved

These are the days and you're living them your way
