E
I spin off and lose my head
                              G A
Throwing stray a spark instead
E
Gather strength down in my heel
                              G A
And dig it in the world I peel

E                           B A
Way down deep within my heart
E                           G A
Lies a soul that's torn apart
E                                B A
Tell me, tell me what you're after
E
I just want to get there faster

Chorus:
E
I don't live - I inhale
I don't give - I unveil
Don't want to live in your misery
I don't live - I inhale

E                               D
Sprinkle all my kisses on your head
E                              D
Stars full of wishes fill our beds
     E          D
She said, "I'm dead"

Gmaj7
All this pain smothers me
Em
Like a bomb that you can't see
Gmaj7
Tell me, tell me what you're after
I just want to get there faster

Chorus:
I don't live - I inhale
I don't give - I unveil
Don't want to live in your misery
I don't live - I inhale
