noone gonna save us, we've done it again
  G	      	            E7

only thing wrong is, we don't seem to jive.

Live is surprising, for there ain't no surprise

if it takes all your live, just trying to survive

Love is your only alibi.

2.)
I've read all the stories, sung all the songs
      F			    D7
sometimes I'm right, but more times I'm wrong
 G			  E7
maybe we scared of playing crazy and dart
 A	  	   	    D7
do almost anything to raise a love.
G		   C7
But you look with your ear and you see with your eye

you walk with your feet and you're sad when you're cry

You win some, you lose some, overnight
     F			      D7
you know what to do, but you can't get it right

and noone gonna help you, 'cause they're all by themselves
     A					  D7
and everyone else you see is somebody else.
     G			      C7
At least when you know, that they're in the same boat

'cause Love is your only alibi.
