C                  G/B
Sometimes I get so weird
               Am
I even freak myself out
                    F
I laugh myself to sleep
         G
It's my lullaby
C                    G/B
Sometimes I drive so fast
                  Am
Just to feel the danger
    Am
I wanna scream
    F              G
It makes me feel alive

Chorus:
F                G
Is it enough to love?
        C    G/B   Am
Is it enough to breath?
          F       G
Somebody rip my heart out
     Am
And leave me here to bleed
       Dm        F
Is it enough to die?
          C   G/B  Am
Somebody save my life
             A#maj7        F         Am
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

To walk within the lines
Would make my life so boring
I want to know that I have been to the extreme
(Knock me) So knock me off my feet (My feet)
C'mon now, give it to me
Anything to make me feel alive

Chorus:
Is it enough to love?
Is it enough to breathe?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary, please
I'd rather be anything but ordinary, please

A#maj7         F
Let down your defences
               C
Use no common sense
C
If you look you will see
                     Am
that this world is a beautiful
Em        D         G
accident turbulent suculent
Am                  D
opulent permanent, no way
        Am
I wanna taste it
             C         D
Don't wanna waste it away

C                 G/B
Sometimes I get so weird
               Am
I even freak myself out
                     F
I laugh my self to sleep
         G
It's my lullaby

Chorus:
Is it enough? Is it enough?
Is it enough to breathe?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary, please
Is it enough?
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary, please, oh
I'd rather be anything but ordinary, please
