This is a simple song to learn, and, as opposed to the album version,
the acoustic (EP) version can be played by yourself, without the need of a back-up band
an electric guitarist.
I believe the tuning is standard, with a capo on the 1st, but you can choose to tune it up,
or ignore the capo, since it's only a half-step difference.
Just listen to the song and you'll get the timings.
Also, you can add little transitional chords (normally, in this song, a D transitions a
to Em nicely, or vice versa),
and since some parts of the song itself are hard to hear, there may be a few incorrect chords,
or a missed one here or there, but what I've got here is good for solo performance.

Verse(s):
I'm wide awake and so alive
Ringing like a bell
Tell me this is paradise
And not some place I fell
Cus I keep on falling down
Chorus:
I wanna feel the car crash, I wanna feel it capsize
I wanna feel the bomb drop, the earth stop
Til I'm satisfied
I wanna feel the crash, cus I'm dyin on the inside
I wanna let go and know that I'll be
Alright, alright
[Verse 2 is the same chords as Verse 1, and then one more Chorus]
Solo/Breakdown:
So right
So wrooooooong
(quick transitional )
I'm wide awake and so.... alive
[Chorus once more]
