Intro
Em G D Am
Em G D C
Verse 1
Em G D Am
You can't feel the heat until you hold your hand over the flame
Em G D Am
You have to cross the line just to remember where it lays
Em G D Am
You won't know your worth now son until you take a hit
Em G D Am
And you won't find the beat until you lose yourself in it
Chorus
Em G
That's why we won't back down we won't run and hide
D Am
Yeah, cause these are the things that we can't deny
Em G
I'm passing over you like a satellite
D Am
So catch me if I fall
Em G
That's why we stick to your game plans and party lives
D Am
But at night we're conspiring by candlelight
Em G
We are the orphans of the american dreams
D Am
Oh shine your light on me
Verse 2
Em G D Am
You can't fill your cup, until you empty all it has
You can't understand what lays ahead
If you don't understand the past
You'll never learn to fly now
Until you're standing at the cliff
And you can't truly love until you've given up on it

Chorus
That's why we won't back down we won't run and hide
Yeah, cause these are the things that we can't deny
I'm passing over you like a satellite
So catch me if i fall
That's why we stick to your game plans and party lives
But at night we're conspiring by candlelight
We are the orphans of the american dreams
Oh shine your light on me

C Em
She told me that she never
G C
Could face the world again

So I offered up a plan:
Em
We'll sneak out

While they sleep
D Am Em
And sail off in the night
G
We'll come clean
D
And start over

The rest of our lives

When we're gone
D
We'll stay gone
Am
Out of sight
Em
Out of mind
G D
It's not too late
Am Em
We have the rest of our lives
We'll sneak out
While they sleep
And sail off in the night
We'll come clean
And start over
The rest of our lives
When we're gone
We'll stay gone
Out of sight
Out of mind
It's not too late
Am C Em
We have the rest of our lives
G D
The rest of our lives
Chorus
Because we won't back down we won't run and hide
Yeah, cause these are the things that we can't deny
I'm passing over you like a satellite
So catch me if i fall

But at night we're conspiring by candlelight
We are the orphans of the american dreams
Oh shine your light on me

We won't back down we won't run and hide

C D Em
This is a life that you can't deny us now
