Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse i

I get myself up every day

To fight this "woe is me" demeanor

If things had gone another way

Now would my grass be any greener?

And as I'm struggling on my own

I have to think I'm not alone

Chorus

Give and take, we catch our breaks

We all learn to survive

But don't look now

said don't look now

Cuz here we are,

Living the best days of our lives

These are the best days of our lives

Verse ii

I fly around the world to spend

My nights with strangers and their lovers

I notice happiness depends

On if we share it with each other

So when this craziness is through

I'll spend my happiness with you

*Chorus*

Bridge

As we're walking through the fire

Isn't it great to be alive?

*Chorus*

-Outro/Chorus-

Give and take, we catch our breaks

We all learn to survive

Oh, but don't look now

I said don't look now

Cause here we are,

Living the best days of our lives

These are the best days of our lives
