-Intro-

C     G     Em     A     Em     A


---------
-Verse 1-
---------

Em                            A
We the people fight for our existence

   Em                                  A
We don't claim to be perfect but we're free

   Em                                A
We dream our dreams alone with no resistance

Em                               A
Fading like the stars we wish to be


--------------
-Pre-chorus 1-
--------------

                D                G        D/F#
Y'know I didn't mean what I just said

       Em                                   A
But my God woke up on the wrong side of His bed


And it just don't matter now


----------
-Chorus 1-
----------

G                D
'Cause little by little

   A                       Em   D/F#           G
We gave you everything you ever dreamed of

              D
And little by little

    A                            Em     D/F#    G
The wheels of your life, they're slowly fallin' off

          D
Little by little

    A              Em      D/F#     G
You had to give it all and now your life

            D            C          G                  A
And all the time, I just ask myself why are you really here?


---------
-Verse 2-
---------

Em                          A
True perfection has to be imperfect

  Em                                     A
I know that that sounds foolish but it's true

    Em                                  A
The day has come and now you'll have to accept

    Em                               A
The life inside your head we give to you

[Repeat     D     C+9     till fade]


*NOTE* If you think the C+9 sounds slightly wrong in the outro, 
try playing it like this: (x32033) or else just try playing 
plain old C major (x32010)

That's it.
