  We rise and we fall and we break and make our mistakes
     Bbm                  Dbsus4               Absus4

[Chorus 2]
  Bbm                    Dbsus4                       Absus4
Death doesn't discrminate between the sinners and the saints,
 
it takes and it takes and it takes
     Bbm
And we keep living anyway,
Dbsus4           Absus4/Gb
  we rise and we fall and we break and make our mistakes
      Bbm                 Dbsus4
And if there's a reason I'm still alive
      Absus4
when everyone who loves me has died,

Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb
 
(Climb, climb, climb)
Db/Gb                      Dsus2/Gb            Bbm
He has something to prove, he has nothing to lose

Hamilton doesn't hesitate, he exhibits no restraint
 
He takes and he takes and he takes
      Db
And he keeps winning anyway

  He changes the game and he plays and raises the stakes
 
[Chorus 3]

And if there's a reason he seems to thrive
Fm/Db  Bbm/C         Fm/C   Bbm/C
When so few survive, then goddammit
       Fm/C    Db/Bb
I'm willing to wait for it
Bbm/Db           Gbmaj7sus2
  I'm willing to wait for it
 
[Chorus 4]
  Bbm                   Dbsus4                       Absus4
Life doesn't discrminate between the sinners and the saints,
 
it takes and it takes and it takes
     Bbm
And we keep living anyway,
      Bbm
(And we keep living anyway)
Dbsus4                    Absus4/Gb
  We rise (We rise and we fall and we break)
 
And we fall (And we make our mistakes)
      Bbm                 Dbsus4
And if there's a reason I'm still alive
      Absus4
when so many have died,
 
Then I'm willing to
