Carpe Diem

the only recording of this song is from a live show , so no one ( other than the band ) is 100% sure about the lyrics . you may have to play down or up half a step based on how your guitar is tuned . there’s a couple parts where i’m leaving it up to the individual to improvise , like on the Solo and that little quiet spot near the end . D G A D D A G D A D breaking in a sweat A D like a bomb threat A D A# A use your silhouette , faded out A D nothing left to lose A D detonate the fuse A D A# A another break and you fall out A D getting off a binge A D get a second wind A D A# A another promise , just make a change A D got a broken wing A D hear the angels sing A D A# A with a signal that’s out of range A# A A# A make a change , make a change D G A D carpe diem , a battle cry D A G D aren’t we all too young to die D G A D ask for reason , and no reply D A A D aren’t we all too young to die G D making a living G D making a killing G D what’s worth forgiving A a life A D and the other night A D barely scraping by A D A# A dominated by passer - by’s ( same chords as above ) feeling out of luck when the traffic’s stuck and you’re feeling so left behind ( same chords ) getting off a binge get a second wind another promise , just make a change ( same chords ) got a broken wing hear the angels sing with a signal that’s out of range A# A A# A any change any change D G A D carpe diem , a battle cry D A G D aren’t we all too young to die D G A D ask for reason , and no reply D A G D aren’t we all too young to die G D making a living G D making a killing G D what’s worth forgiving A a life ( same chords as above , but palm muted ) making a living making a killing what’s worth forgiving a life/Alive ( same chords as other Chorus ) carpe diem , a battle cry are/Aren’t we all too young to die ask for reason , and no reply aren’t we all too young to die carpe diem , a battle cry are/Aren’t we all too young to die ask for reason , and no reply are/Aren’t we all too young to die if this isn’t perfect , it’s close enough for now . stay groovy and keep on rockin’ .
