[Intro]
A7/F#  B/G#  A  C#m7  B  G#m
A7/F#  B/G#  A  C#m7  B  G#m
A7/F#  B/G#  A  C#m7  B  G#m Asus4/E
 
 
[Verse 1]
              F#m G#m  A           C#m         B
Sometimes you wonder if we're ever looking back
G#m  F#m     G#m    A            C#m  B
At a picture of two thousand nineteen
    G#m      F#m    G#m    A               C#m       B
And saying, "That's the way, the world, it used to be
  G#m      Asus4/E
Before our dreams started bursting at the seams"
          F#m  G#m       A
We're out here and we're ready
      C#m            B    G#m
We're here and we're ready
   F#m        G#m  A        C#m  B
To livestream the apocalypse
  G#m   F#m  G#m     A
I don't care if it's pretty
    C#m       B      G#m      Asus4/E
The view's so pretty from the deck of a sinking ship, yeah
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
          A    G#m      C#m
Oh 'cause everything is lit except my serotonin, yeah
A    G#m      C#m
Everything is lit but my lightning bolt brain
A    G#m      C#m  Asus4/D  Asus2/B
Everything is lit
 
 
[Chorus]
          A7/F#   B/G# A         C#m7       B    G#m
But baby, please, I    just need someone to hold me
A7/F# B/G# A          C#m7       B    G#m
    Even   though you don't even know me
A7/F#   B/G#  A           C#m7  B    G#m
Oh, I'm going neon in the night time
Asus4/E                A7/F# B/G# A
Oh, what a time to be alive
       C#m7    B  G#m A7/F# B/G# A
What a time to be a - live
       C#m7    B  G#m A7/F# B/G# A
What a time to be a - live
       C#m7    B  G#m Asus4/E
What a time to be a - live
 
 
[Verse 2]
              F#m    G#m  A     C#m    B
They say that I should try  meditation
    G#m     F#m     G#m     A      C#m           B
But I don't want to be with my own thoughts (own thoughts)
   G#m   F#m     G#m   A         C#m    B
It never felt that much like medication
    G#m    Asus4/E
And I just want to be your cherry on top
          F#m  G#m       A
We're out here and we're ready
      C#m            B    G#m
We're here and we're ready
   F#m        G#m  A        C#m  B
To livestream the apocalypse
    G#m       F#m  G#m  A
And I'm going on and on and on
C#m            B     G#m     Asus4/E
Make me like a charm on your necklace
 
Oh, your necklace
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
          A    G#m      C#m
Oh 'cause everything is lit except my serotonin, yeah
A    G#m      C#m
Everything is lit but my lightning bolt brain
A    G#m      C#m  Asus4/D  Asus2/B
Everything is lit
 
 
[Chorus]
          A7/F#   B/G# A         C#m7       B    G#m
But baby, please, I    just need someone to hold me
A7/F# B/G# A          C#m7       B    G#m
    Even   though you don't even know me
A7/F#   B/G#  A           C#m7  B
Oh, I'm going neon in the night time
Asus4/E                A7/F# B/G# A
Oh, what a time to be alive
       C#m7    B  G#m A7/F# B/G# A
What a time to be a - live
       C#m7    B  G#m A7/F# B/G# A
What a time to be a - live
       C#m7    B  G#m Asus4/E
What a time to be a - live
 
 
[Bridge]
F#m         G#m A
 What a time to  be alive
B   C#m   F#/Bb  Asus4/D
 To be alive
 
 
[Solo]
A7/F#  B/G#  A  C#m7  B  G#m
A7/F#  B/G#  A  C#m7  B  G#m
A7/F#  B/G#  A  C#m7  B  G#m Asus4/E
 
 
[Chorus]
                          A7/F#    B/G# A
When, when, when I said, "Leave me a -  lone"
           C#m7         B   G#m
This isn't quite what I meant
          A7/F# B/G# A
I got the quarantine blues
   C#m7          B  G#m
Bad news, what's left?
A7/F# B/G#      A                 C#m7        B  G#m
So it seems the vulture's getting too full to fly
Asus4/E                   A7/F# B/G# A
Oh-oh, what a time to be alive
       C#m7    B  G#m A7/F# B/G# A
What a time to be a - live
       C#m7    B  G#m A7/F# B/G# A
What a time to be a - live
       C#m7    B  G#m Asus4/E
What a time to be a - live (What a time to be alive)
A7/F# B/G#   A     C#m7           B   G#m
      What a time, what a time to be alive (what a time to be alive)
A7/F# B/G#   A     C#m7           B   G#m
      What a time, what a time to be alive (what a time to be alive)
A7/F# B/G#   A     C#m7           B  G#m Asus4/E
      What a time, what a time to be a - live
              N.C.
Sometimes you wonder if we're ever looking back
              Sometimes you wonder if we're ever looking back
At a picture of 2019
And saying, "That's the way, the world, it used to be
Before our dreams started bursting at the seams"

We're out here and we're ready
We're here and we're ready
To livestream the apocalypse
I don't care if it's pretty
The view's so pretty
From the deck of a sinking ship
Yeah, oh

'Cause everything is lit except my serotonin, yeah
Everything is lit but my lightning bolt brain
Everything is lit

But baby, please, I just need someone to hold me
Even though you don't even know me
Oh, I'm going neon in the night time

Oh, what a time to be alive
What a time to be alive
What a time to be alive
What a time to be alive

They say that I should try meditation
But I don't want to be with my own thoughts (own thoughts)
It never felt that much like medication
And I just want to be your cherry on top

We're out here and we're ready
We're here and we're ready
To livestream the apocalypse
And I'm going on and on and on
Make me like a charm on your necklace
Oh, your necklace

Oh, 'cause everything is lit except my serotonin, yeah
Everything is lit but my lightning bolt brain
Everything is lit

But baby, please, I just need someone to hold me
Even though you don't even know me
Oh, I'm going neon in the night time

Oh, what a time to be alive
What a time to be alive
What a time to be alive
What a time to be alive

What a time to be alive
To be alive

When, when, when I said, "Leave me alone"
This isn't quite what I meant
I got the quarantine blues
Bad news, what's left?
So it seems the vulture's getting too full to fly

Oh (oh), what a time to be alive
What a time to be alive
What a time to be alive
What a time to be alive

What a time to be alive 
(What a time, what a time to be alive) what a time to be alive
(What a time, what a time to be alive) what a time to be alive
(What a time, what a time to be alive) what a time to be alive

Sometimes you wonder if we're ever looking back
