Is There Anybody Out There by Secondhand Serenade
Is There Anybody Out There
Half-step down
[Intro] C#m - E - B - B
[Verse]
C#m E
You can say goodbye,
B
To all the things that you have ever known.
C#m E
You can say goodbye,
B
And leave behind the life that you have grown.
C#m E
What's the point,
B
You try to start from scratch,
but get let down,
C#m E
You can say goodbye,
B A
Just to realise there's no-one left around.
C#m B
So what am I fighting for
[Chorus]
E
Tell me
Is there anybody out there,
B
Am I swimming through this empty sea alone,
C#m
Am I looking for an answer
A B
Or am I trying to find a way to get back home.
E
Is there anybody out there,
B
Would you hear me if I screamed or if I cried,
C#m
I'm looking for an answer
A B C#m B C#m
And just trying to find a way to survive.
[Verse]
C#m E
You can live or die,
B
Without the chance to find out what your worth,
C#m E
You can live or die,
B
And never find the one that she'd deserve,
C#m E
You can walk alone,
B
And live behind the shadows in your heart,
C#m E
You can say goodbye
B A
Or live and find out you've been alone right from the start
C#m B
So what am I fighting for
[Chorus]
E
Tell me
Is there anybody out there,
B
Am I swimming through this empty sea alone,
C#m
Am I looking for an answer
A B
Or am I trying to find a way to get back home.
E
Is there anybody out there,
B
Would you hear me if I screamed or if I cried,
C#m
I'm looking for an answer
A B A
And just trying to find a way to survive
[Bridge]
A C#m B
Never thought I would end up all alone, (All alone, all alone..)
A C#m B
Every day I am feeling further away from home,
F#m
I can't catch my breath,
A B
But I am holding on
[Chorus/Outro]
E
Is there anybody out there,
B
is this the last time I have to say goodbye,
C#m
Am I staring at my future,
A B
Is it time to take charge of my life,
E
Is there anybody out there
B
Am I swimming through this empty sea alone,
C#m
Am I looking for an answer,
A B
or am I trying to find a way to get back home,
E
Is there anybody out there,
B
Would you hear me if I screamed or if I cried,
C#m
I am looking for an answer,
A F#m
And just trying to find a way to survive,
A B
A way to survive,
E
And I am holding on
End on E
