D Please give me a reason to believe all the lies 'Cause my teachers and the media are ghouls in disguise A Abusing their authority to proselytize G D But nothing they report to me could change my mind I need a vacation from the way things have been Because I'm growing impatient, yeah, it's boiling my skin Had enough manipulation, can you just let me live? Mmm, live my life Chorus: Bm A I'm not gonna give in G D Bm A G If I have to fight, then I'm willing to give my life D Bm A Rather die than lay down on my back G D A Got no white flag to throw This is my Alamo, this, this is my Alamo Please give me a reason to give up on myself You can tell me that it's treasonous to stand and rebel I won't pledge you my allegiance, I'll just bid you farewell Mmm, and goodbye Chorus D I know that on the surface A It might seem like I'm just fine Bm But I can’t eat, I barely sleep A Sometimes, I wanna run and hide G Feel like I'm dying in this cage F#m My soul is trapped, I feel confined G And I just wish they’d let me out A So I could finally live my life D I know that on the surface A It might seem like I'm just fine Bm But I can’t eat, I barely sleep A Sometimes, I wanna run and hide G Feel like I'm dying in this cage F#m My soul is trapped, I feel confined G And I just wish they’d let me out A So I could finally live my life Chorus: I'm not gonna give in If I have to fight, then I'm willing to give my life Rather die than lay down on my back Got no white flag to throw I'm not gonna give in If I have to fight, then I'm willing to give my life Rather die than lay down on my back Got no white flag to throw This is my Alamo, this, this is my Alamo You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  D  F#m  G  Bm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
