[Verse 1]
        F2                  G2
So I walk alone down the darkest roads
             Dm7                   C
Cause I've always known how the story goes
            F2                     G2
When the curtain falls, I'll be wearing thin
         Dm7                       C
Clawing at the walls as they're closing in


[Verse 2]
           F2                G2   
In this twisted plot I was destined for
        Dm7              C
I'm an astronaut on the ocean floor
       F2                     G2 
So misunderstood 'till the bloody end
         Dm7                 C       Am   F
How I wish I could do it all again


[Chorus]
C                    G
 It feels like I'm a lone survivor
Am               G7
  Forgotten in a dark and deadly world
C             G
 And on my own, I walk alone
Am                    F                     
  To see the sun again I'd give anything
C                   G
 But life demands a final chapter
Am                G7
  A story that we all must leave behind
C              G
 It's do or die, and this is mine
Am                    F
  The anthem of a bird with a broken wing

[Verse 3]
       F2                  G2  
It's another night of the living dead
        Dm7              C
Like a viper bite in a spiderweb
           F2                G2
It's so deathly dark in the alleyway
         Dm7                    C
And a bleeding heart makes you easy prey


[Verse 4]
          F2                   G2
I would run and hide for the afternoon
           Dm7              C
With the butterfly in the panic room
             F2                       G2
Though I won't be missed, I would say it's time
        Dm7                    C          Am  F
For a different twist in the story line


[Chorus]
C                    G
 It feels like I'm a lone survivor
Am               G7
  Forgotten in a dark and deadly world
C             G
 And on my own, I walk alone
Am                    F                     
  To see the sun again I'd give anything
C                   G
 But life demands a final chapter
Am                G7
  A story that we all must leave behind
C              G
 It's do or die, and this is mine
Am                    F
  The anthem of a bird with a broken wing

  The anthem of a bird with a broken wing
Am                    F                   F
  The anthem of a bird with a broken wing


[Verse 5]
             F2                  G2
Tell the world I know that my mind is made
          Dm7                C     
It's a hard show, but I'm not afraid
             F2                      G2
Though I won't be missed, I would say it's time
        Dm7                    C        
For a different twist in the story line
