[Verse 1]
G/B Em G7 CMaj7 B7
You know I've heard it said there's beauty in distortion
Em G7 CMaj7 B7
By some people who've withdrawn to find their heads
Em G7 Em6 Cm
Now they say that there is humor in misfortune
C D G
You know I wonder if they'll laugh when they are dead
[Chorus]
C G Am7 G
Why am I fighting to live if I'm just living to fight?
C Em Am7 D
Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothing in sight?
G G7 C B7 Em
Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try?
C G Am G
Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die?
[Bridge]

[Verse 2]
G/B Em G7 CMaj7 B7
You know some people say that values are subjective
Em G7 CMaj7 B7
But they're just speaking words that someone else has said
Em G7 Em6 Cm
And so they live and fight and kill with no objective
C D G
Sometimes it's hard to tell the living from the dead
[Chorus]
C G Am7 G
Why am I fighting to live if I'm just living to fight?
C Em Am7 D
Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothing in sight?
G G7 C B7 Em
Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try?
C G Am G
Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die?

[Verse 3]
G/B Em G7 CMaj7 B7
You know I used to weave my words into confusion
Em G7 CMaj7 B7
And so I hope you'll understand me when I'm through
Em G7 Em6 Cm
You know I used to live my life as an illusion
C D G
But reality will make my dream come true
[Last Chorus]
C G Am7 G
So I'll keep fighting to live till there's no reason to fight
C Em Am7 D
And I'll keep trying to see until the end is in sight
G G7 C B7 Em
You know I'm trying to give so c'mon give me a try
C G Am G
You know I'm dying to live until I'm ready to die
[Outro]
G Gadd4 Gsus4
Csus2 C Csus2 G
G Gadd4 G Am Am7 Am G
Until I'm ready
G Gadd4 Gsus4
Csus2 C Csus2 G
G Gadd4 G Am Am7 Am G
Until God takes me
