wanted to add the full song with simple chords and lyrics all the way through
mainly just play around with strumming, this doesnt have all the solos tabbed
[Verse 1]
F#m
Some of us, we're hardly ever here
F#m
The rest of us, we're born to disappear
F#m
How do I stop myself from being just a number?
F#m
How will I hold my head to keep from goin' under?
[Chorus]
A
Down to the wire
B
I wanted water, but I'll walk through the fire
A
If this is what it takes to take me even higher
A
Then I'll come through
B
Like I do when the world keeps testing me, testing me, testing me
[Verse 2]
F#m
How did they find me here?
F#m
What do they want from me?
F#m
All of these vultures hiding right outside my door
F#m
I hear them whispering
F#m
They're tryin' to ride it out
F#m
They've never gone this long without a kill before
[Chorus]
A
Down to the wire
B
I wanted water, but I'll walk through the fire
A
If this is what it takes to take me even higher
A
Then I'll come through
B
Like I do when the world keeps testing me, testing me, testing me
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
F#m
Wheels up
F#m
I got to leave this evening
F#m
I can't seem to shake these vultures off of my trail
F#m
Power is made by power being taken
F#m
So I keep on running to protect my situation
[Chorus]
A
Down to the wire
B
I wanted water, but I'll walk through the fire
A
If this is what it takes to take me even higher
A
Then I'll come through
B
Like I do when the world keeps testing me, testing me, testing me
[Outro]
A B
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh x4
F#m
Whatcha gonna do about it?
F#m
Whatcha gonna do about it?
F#m
Whatcha gonna do 'bout it?
F#m
Don't give up, give up
F#m
Don't give up, give up, give up
F#m
Don't you give up
F#m
Don't give up, give up, give up
