Rina Sawayama
Album : Hold the Girl
    [Verse 1]
  G                                     Em
Flowers still look pretty when they're dying
  Am                                D
Blue skies always there behind the rain, rain
G                          Em
Oceans swallow all of our feelings
Am                          D
I know it's just temporary pain, pain
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
       G
'Cause I used to make my world so small (Small)
  Em
Prisoner to my bedroom walls
Am
I never thought that I'd get this right
       D
But I finally know what it feels like
 
 
[Chorus]
        G            Em
To be alive, to be alive
          Am
Opened my eyes, feels like the first time
        D
That I finally know what it feels like
        G            Em
To be alive, to be alive
          Am
Opened my eyes, feels like the first time
        D
That I finally know what it feels like
      G      G/F#    F    Em
To bе alive

[Verse 2]
 G                               Em
Darkness used to wrap its arms around me
  Am                              D
I used to bring it with me everywhere, where
G
 I swear that sometimes I get to be my worst enemy
Em
 I swear this whole time, the answer's been right in front of me
Am
 All of the beauty and love I could not see
D
 I see it now, I see it now
 
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
       G
'Cause I used to make my world so small
  Em
Prisoner to my bedroom walls
Am
I never thought that I'd get this right
       D
But I finally know what it feels like
 
 
 
[Chorus]
        G            Em
To be alive, to be alive
          Am
Opened my eyes, feels like the first time
        D
That I finally know what it feels like
        G            Em
To be alive, to be alive
          Am
Opened my eyes, feels like the first time
        D
That I finally know what it feels like
      G      G/F#    F    Em
To bе alive

      G                  G/F#               F     Em
Oh, flowers still look pretty when they're dying
