[Intro]
N.C.
Now I lay me down to sleep
Six feet down beneath concrete
If I should die before I wake
Did I make peace or a mistake?
[Verse 1]
Am
Before the ink dries on the suicide note
G
Before you say goodbye to the ones you love most
Dm
Before you burn the book of your story untold
C G
Hold on, hold on
Am
Before you cut ties with the demons you know
G
Before you tie a knot at the end of your rope
Dm
Before you decide that you're running out of hope
G
Hold on
[Chorus]
Am
You don't have to die
G
To reach the other side
Dm Am
You don't have to die, have to die
G
To find your afterlife, afterlife
Am
The monsters in your mind
G
Are mountains you can climb
Dm Am
You don't have to die, have to die
G
To find your afterlife, afterlife
[Verse 2]
Am
Before you look for God in a bottle of pills
G
Before you turn the lights off so you don't have to feel
Dm
Before it's not a threat, before you make it real
C G
Hold on, hold on
Am
Before you go to sleep praying to a razor blade
G
Before you stare a gun down to see a better place
Dm
Before it's in stone, before it's too late
G
Hold on
[Chorus]
Am
You don't have to die
G
To reach the other side
Dm Am
You don't have to die, have to die
G
To find your afterlife, afterlife
Am
The monsters in your mind
G
Are mountains you can climb
Dm Am
You don't have to die, have to die
G
To find your afterlife, afterlife
[Bridge 1]
Dm
Nobody knows
Em G
If we'll ever rest in peace
Dm
But we control
Em G
Where the road through hell can lead
Dm Em
You've got eternity to sleep
[Bridge 2]
N.C.
If I should die
Before I wake
Did I make peace
Or a mistake?
[Chorus]
Am
You don't have to die
G
To reach the other side
Dm Am
You don't have to die, have to die
G
To find your afterlife, afterlife
Am
The monsters in your mind
G
Are mountains you can climb
Dm Am
You don't have to die, have to die
G
To find your afterlife, afterlife
