E A E B


[Verse 1]
                  E
You feel it come apart, it's ripping at the seams
                   A
Spilling out with everything, your hopes and dreams
                   E
Accompanied by misery and all that it
                   B
brings to tear you away


[Verse 2]
                   E
You're coming so close to standing bird in hand
                   A
You find it so much harder just to get back up again
                   E
But that's how you manage to pretend
          B
it'll be okay


[Pre-Chorus]
     A
Yeah you made it through
E
In all that you do
 A            E              B
Even when the black & blue starts to set in


[Chorus]
      A       E
Ohoh, you can try
A              E
To push it all aside
A
But sooner or later life will pass you
B
by
    A      E
And in the end
A                  E
When the pain sets in
A                           B
We find a way to take it in stride
           A
And we get by
                   E
Yeah we're getting by
       A
We get by
                   E A E A E A B
Yeah we're getting by


[Verse 3]
               E
You see the sunrise just around the bend
                           A
You've made it through the darkness until the end
                    E
You've been through hell and back again
                 B
to find your way home


[Verse 4]
             E
And all your scars you wear with pride
                A
You never cover up or keep it all inside
                     E
Cause that's how you know you're still
                      B
alive and that you've grown


[Pre-Chorus]
     A
Yeah you made it through
E
In all that you do
A             E                 B
Even when the black & blue has already set in


[Chorus]
   A       E
Oh you can try
A               E
To push it all aside
A
But sooner or later life will pass you
B
by
    A      E
And in the end
A                  E
When the pain sets in
A                           B
We find a way to take it in stride
           A
And we get by
                   E A E A E A B
Yeah we're getting by


[Bridge]
         A                     E
Whoa and giving in means there's nothing left
   A                     E
Oh giving in means there's nothing left
     A                       E
Yeah giving in means there's nothing
        B
left to change
         A                     E
Whoa and giving in means there's nothing left
   A                     E
Oh giving in means there's nothing left
     A                       E
Yeah giving in means there's nothing
        B
left to change


[Chorus]
   A       E
Oh You can try
A               E
To push it all aside
A
But sooner or later life will pass you
B
by
    A      E
And in the end
A                  E
When the pain sets in
A                           B
We find a way to take it in stride
           A
And we get by
                   E
Yeah we're getting by


[Outro]
       A
We get by
                   E
Yeah we're getting by
        A
Getting by
            E
Yeah we get by
