G Bm A
Royal beggars, royal beggars
A7 E E7sus4
Do you, do you, do you wanna…
GM7 Bm A
Live forever, live forever
E E7sus4
Alone, alone, alone?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
. F#m
‘Cause we’re broken
G F#m
All hope is dead, but we’re coping
N.C.
Somebody, save our souls…

[Chorus]

Bm G A
Like a bird in a cage, trying to fly away
A6 E F#m7 Bm
Is this the price that we have to pay?
G A
Overflowing with rage, yet we still obey
A7 E E7 G
‘Cause we’re asleep in a hurricane

[Verse 2]
GM7 Bm A
Bitter lovers, bitter lovers
E E7sus4
Let go, let go, let go ’cause it’s
GM7 Bm A
Now or never, now or never
E E7sus4
Breathe in, breathe out, breathe in…

[Pre-Chorus 2]
F#m
‘Cause we’re choking
G F#m
And left for dead, but we’re coping
N.C.
Somebody, save our souls…

[Chorus]
Bm G A
Like a bird in a cage, trying to fly away
E F#m7 Bm
Is this the price that we have to pay?

Overflowing with rage, yet we still obey
A6 E E7 Bm ~
‘Cause we’re asleep in a hurricane

G Bm
Are you listening?
A
You may not have noticed
A6
We have totally lost our way

Are you lost in the clouds?
A
Or can you hold your focus?
A6
It’s ourselves that we will betray
G Bm
Are you listening?
F#m
You may not have noticed

Are you lost in the clouds?
