I dont know if I could last
When I couldnt rescue you
And I dont know if my best
Is enough for me anymore
Well I will take it as a test
I will see if I console
You know Id change it if I could
But somethings wrong
Its understood
And at times I miss you
Know that you make it hard to breathe
I wish it was fake
Sound the alarm
I know well make it right, alright
I know tonight
We're alright
Am I the only one?
Am I the only one that you can hear?
Am I the only one?
Cause if I'm the only one that you can hear
Hear me (hear me), hear me (hear me)
Hear me (hear me), hear me (hear me)
X2
And at times I miss you
I know that you make it
All too real
I wish it were fake
Sound the alarm
I know we'll make it right alright
I know tonight
We're alright
Right, alright
Right, alright
You know we'll be alright
We'll be alright tonight
Notes: Sometimes when playing the barre chords, he leaves the B and E open. Also, he is
to hammer on the E (2nd fret) on the D string when playing E chords.
