 E
Coming up for oxygen
     D
The world's the same, but something’s changing
 E
You see it on the street again
 D
Lighting up the strangest faces

E
And it feels like that
  D
Sweeter than the best you've ever had
E
And, oh, it takes me back
          D
To being sixteen, dancing like you're under attack

Chorus:
A
I don’t really care if it nearly kills me
D                         A/C#
I'd give you the world if you asked me to
A
I could break a glass just to watch it shatter
D                       A/C#
I'd do anything just to feel with you

E
Right
D
You, alright
E D
Alright

I see it in your teeth again
There's a tightness when you're smiling
It creeps in through the backdoor when
You play pretend and break down crying

And it feels like that
'Cause you're wishing you had something you
never had
But now we're going back
To being sixteen, flying like you’ll never collapse

Chorus:
I don’t really care if it nearly kills me
I'd give you the world if you asked me to
I could break a glass just to watch it shatter
I’d do anything just to feel with you
I don't really care if it nearly kills me
Feel it in my fist like it's time to move
Quick, give me a glass, I'ma watch it shatter
I’d do anything just to feel with you

Right
You, alright
You

D
I know there's people everywhere with
injustice on their lips
E
And there's this open wound bleeding
between my hips
F#m
And I'd be lying if I told you I wasn't scared
      D
I'm scared, I'm scared, I'm scared, I'm scared
I'm scared and I've got all this
                         E
anger trapped so deep inside
                                           F#m
That started burning the summer my heroes died
                                                D
And I just wish that I could hear a new Bowie again
Again, again, again, again
Again, again, again, again, again
Again, again, again, again, again, oh, yeah

Chorus:
I don't really care if it nearly kills me
I'd give you the world if you asked me to
I could break a glass just to watch it shatter
I'd do anything just to feel with you
I don't really care if it nearly kills me
I'd give you the world if you wanted to
I can feel it in my fists, it's time to shatter
I'd do anything just to feel with, with you
I'd do anything just to feel with you
I'd do anything just to feel with you
