But I'm alive

EE Piano Chord

Look at the way I believed in you and loved you all these years
EE Piano Chord 
                                           AA Piano Chord 

Now you could fill a swimming pool with all my salty tears
EE Piano Chord 
                                 AA Piano Chord 

You told me what was in your heart but  baby you lied

The words in paren's are background vocals.  Tacet means (or at least
I mean) to break off strumming, i.e. there's no music played while
singing "But I'm alive".
