Tom: E
E A E B
[Verse 1]
E
You feel it come apart, it's ripping at the seams
A
Spilling out with everything, your hopes and dreams
E
Accompanied by misery and all that it
B
brings to tear you away
[Verse 2]
E
You're coming so close to standing bird in hand
A
You find it so much harder just to get back up again
E
But that's how you manage to pretend
B
it'll be okay
[Pre-Chorus]
A
Yeah you made it through
E
In all that you do
A E B
Even when the black & blue starts to set in
[Chorus]
A E
Ohoh, you can try
A E
To push it all aside
A
But sooner or later life will pass you
B
by
A E
And in the end
A E
When the pain sets in
A B
We find a way to take it in stride
A
And we get by
E
Yeah we're getting by
A
We get by
E A E A E A B
Yeah we're getting by
[Verse 3]
E
You see the sunrise just around the bend
A
You've made it through the darkness until the end
E
You've been through hell and back again
B
to find your way home
[Verse 4]
E
And all your scars you wear with pride
A
You never cover up or keep it all inside
E
Cause that's how you know you're still
B
alive and that you've grown
[Pre-Chorus]
A
Yeah you made it through
E
In all that you do
A E B
Even when the black & blue has already set in
[Chorus]
A E
Oh you can try
A E
To push it all aside
A
But sooner or later life will pass you
B
by
A E
And in the end
A E
When the pain sets in
A B
We find a way to take it in stride
A
And we get by
E A E A E A B
Yeah we're getting by
[Bridge]
A E
Whoa and giving in means there's nothing left
A E
Oh giving in means there's nothing left
A E
Yeah giving in means there's nothing
B
left to change
A E
Whoa and giving in means there's nothing left
A E
Oh giving in means there's nothing left
A E
Yeah giving in means there's nothing
B
left to change
[Chorus]
A E
Oh You can try
A E
To push it all aside
A
But sooner or later life will pass you
B
by
A E
And in the end
A E
When the pain sets in
A B
We find a way to take it in stride
A
And we get by
E
Yeah we're getting by
[Outro]
A
We get by
E
Yeah we're getting by
A
Getting by
E
Yeah we get by
