It's not perfect, but decent. Have fun!

VERSE 1 (Plucking)
                                                      
It's four AM, I'm waking up to your perfume 
                                          
Don't get up, I'll get through on my own 
                                   
I don't know if I'm home 
         
Or if I lost the way into your room 
    
I'm spiraling into my doom 
                                                          
I'm feeling half alive but I know one day 
                  (strum)
You and I will be free, 


CHORUS:
                                                      
To live and die by our own rules, Free...

Despite the fact that men are fools. 
                                                             
I'm almost alive, and I need you to try 
         
And save me. 
                                     
It's okay that we're dying, 
                                                 
But I need to survive tonight, tonight. 

Pluck:    


Verse 2
           
Well excuse me while I get killed softly, 
                                                           
Heart slows down and I can hardly tell you I'm okay 
      
At least 'til yesterday, 
                            
You know you got me off my highest guard, 
 
Believe me when I say it's hard. 
            
We'll get through this tonight 
                                                                    
And I know one day you and I will be free 


CHORUS:
                                                      
To live and die by our own rules, Free...

Despite the fact that men are fools. 
                                                             
I'm almost alive, and I need you to try 
         
And save me. 
                                     
It's okay that we're dying, 
                                                 
But I need to survive tonight, tonight. 


BRIDGE PART 1: (Shots)
                                                       
And you touch my hand ever so slightly 
                       
(Girl we're not ready for this yet) 
                                                       
And the deadly look she cast upon me 
                                           
I won't regret, I won't regret                     
                                           
I won't regret.   I won't regret... 

BRIDGE PART 2:
                                           
And I was trying to disappear, 
                                               
But you got me wrapped around you 

I can hardly breathe without you 
                                     
I was trying to disappear 
                                          
But I got lost in your eyes now, 

You brought me down to size now. 


CHORUS: (Plucking)
