VERSE 1: 

C                       Bb                   
I've been lookin' for a sign
F                   C
Runnin' through the rain
              Bb
Shiver to the bone
F                           C
But I still can't shake the pain

VERSE 2:         
                        Bb           
I've been lookin' for a sign 
F              C
Rollin' on the ground
              Bb
What did I do today
F                      C
Well, I can't remember now


CHORUS: (w/a lil bit of crunch)
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/g/gentry_montgomery/trying_to_survive_crd.html ]
Fsus             F
I'm just tryin' to survive
                    C
The best way I know how
                       G
My heart just keeps on wanting
                            C
The one who doesn't want me now
Fsus         F
So what if I go crazy
****See Note***        Bb
Goin' there keeps me alive
                G
Livin' makes it clear
                     Bb
I'm just stuck right here
          C
Tryin' to survive


****NOTE****

VERSE 3:
          
C                    Bb
But I wont stay down long 
F                C
And I'll be back again
                   Bb
I'll even learn to smile
F                       C
Hey, I just wish I knew when
