Buried Alive

Am                    C
Take the time just to listen
         F                    E
When the voices screaming are much too loud
Am                 C
Take a look in the distance
        F      E
Try and see it all

Am                   C
Chances are that you might find
        F                 E
That we share a common discomfort now
Am                   C
I feel I'm walking a fine line
        F            E
Tell me only if it's real

Dm        C     G
Still I'm on my way
G
(On and on it goes)
Dm     C       G E
Vacant hope to take

Am
Hey!
  E     F                E        F G
I can't live in here for another day
Am       E   F                 E
Darkness has kept the light concealed
F    E  G F
Grim as ever
Am      E  F              E          F G
Hold on to faith as I dig another grave
Am        E   F               E
Meanwhile the mice endure the wheel
E
Real as ever
E                             Am
And it seems I've been buried alive!

( C F E )

  Am                          C
I walk the fields through the fire
       F                   E            Am
Taking steps until I found solid ground
                          C
Followed dreams, reaching higher
            F        E
Couldn't survive the fall

Am                         C
Much has changed since the last time
      F                  E            Am
And I feel a little less certain now
                         C
You know I jumped at the first sign
        F            E
Tell me only if it's real

Dm       C       G
Memories seem to fade
G
(On and on it goes)
Dm      C    G E
Wash my view away

Am
Hey!
  E     F                E        F G
I can't live in here for another day
Am       E   F                 E
Darkness has kept the light concealed
F    E  G F
Grim as ever
Am      E  F              E          F G
Hold on to faith as I dig another grave
Am        E   F               E
Meanwhile the mice endure the wheel
F    E  G F E
Real as ever
        F       E      G   F
And I'm chained like a slave
E
Trapped in the dark
E
Slammed all the locks
E
Death calls my name
       F     E         G F
And it seems I've been buried alive!

Take you down now
E
Burn it all out
E
Throw you all around
E                G     F#  F
Get your fuckin' HANDS OFF ME!

E
What's it feel like?
E
Took the wrong route
E
Watch it fall apart
E                   G  F#  F     E
Now you're knockin' AT THE WRONG GATE!

Ab         Am      B
For you to pay the toll
  Am        B   C
A price for you alone
Ab       Am          B
The only deal you'll find
Am          B         C
I'll gladly take your soul

E
While it seems sick
E
Sober up quick
E              E
Psycho lunatic crushing you with
G     F# F
HANDS OF FATE!

E
Shame to find out
E
When it's too late
E
But you're all the same
E              G    F# F E
Trapped inside INFERNO AWAITS!

Ab     Am          B
Evil thoughts can hide
Am        B        B
I'll help release the mind
Ab         Am     B
I'll peel away the skin
Am         B       C
Release the dark within

E    G  F#  G       E
This is now your life
E      G   F#   G   E
Strike you from the light
E    G  F#  G    E
This is now your life
E    G F#   G E
Die, buried alive
