F#m A   D

[Verse 1]
F#m    A                      D
I know a man who could never relax
F#m       A                       D
Lonely in his bed, going over his tracks
F#m      A                   D
I know a man at the break of dawn
        E                       D
He goes on, he goes on, he goes on
F#m    A                      D
I know a girl who keeps to herself
F#m            A                       D
Pushed all her dreams to the back of a shelf
F#m      A                     D
I know a girl and she's almost gone
         E                         D
She goes on, she goes on, she goes on


[Chorus]
          A     Asus4 A/D# Asus4
And it's alright
           A      Asus4 A/D# Asus4
Yeah, it's alright
F#m E                                     F#m D
    They wanna build you up and make you a na-tional treasure
F#m E                                          F#m D
    They wanna tear you apart and baby, you're fee-ling the pressure

[Verse 2]
F#m      A                  D
I know a boy who can barely breathe
F#m          A                          D
Ain't caught a breath since he was seventeen
F#m    A                  D
I know a boy with an iron lung
        E                       D
He goes on, he goes on, he goes
F#m      A                  D
My daddy says, "Don't sweat it"
F#m      A                   D
My daddy says, "Don't forget it"
F#m      A                           E    D                   
My daddy says, "Don't let it get you down"


[Chorus]
            A      Asus4 A/D# Asus4
'Cause it's alright
            A      Asus4 A/D# Asus4
Yeah, it's alright, oh
F#m E                                     F#m D
    They wanna build you up and make you a na-tional treasure
F#m E                                          F#m D
    They wanna tear you apart and baby, you're fee-ling the pressure
     F#m   E
Well shake me alright (shake me alright)
F#m  D
Wake me already
     F#m E
It's taking all night (taking all night)
         F#m  D          E    F#m
And it's making me edgy, yeah
                    D
It doesn't end like this
        E   F#m
Oh, no, no
                    D
It doesn't end like this
        E   F#m
Oh, no, no
                    D    n.c.
It doesn't end like this
