I feel it in my bones
          C#m      F#m
The way I hit the lows

Everyday felt like a rollercoaster

Consumed by all the noise
         C#m      F#m

I had to change the view
So packed a parachute
And started climbing mountains I had made up
I was afraid of heights
Until I learned to fly
Now I'm staring at the ground from way up

Got my blood, got my blood on fire
(Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-I)
And it takes me higher
