Bling Confessions Of A King Chords & Lyrics Artist: The Killers

F#
 
Bm
  When I offer you survival
G
 You say it's hard enough to live
Em                             G
  It's not so bad, it's not so bad
A                Bm                 G  A
 How do you know that you're right?
 
 
  VERSE I
 
   Bm
I awoke on the roadside
       G
In the land of the free ride
            Em
And I can't pull it any longer
    Bm
The sun is beating down my neck
 
     Bm
So I ran with the devil
       G
Left a trail of excuses
       Em
Like a stone on the water
    Bm
The elements decide my fate
         G    D    A      D
Watch it go . . . "bling"
 
 
  CHORUS
 
Bm                A
When I offer you survival
G
You say it's hard enough to live
D                  A
Don't tell me that it's over
        G
Stand up, Poor and tired but more than this
 
D               A
How do you know that you're right?
              G
If you're not nervous anymore
D           A                G
It's not so bad, it's not so bad
 
 
  VERSE II
 
                          Bm
I feel my vision slipping in and out of focus
        G
But I'm pushing on for that horizon
            Em
I'm pushing on
                 Bm
Now I've got the blowing wind against my face
 
 
So you sling rocks at the rip tide
     G
Am I wrong or am I right?
          Em
I hit the bottom with a "huh!" - Quite strange
         Bm
I get my glory in the desert rain
         G    D    A      D
Watch it go . . . "bling"
 
 
  CHORUS
 
Bm                A
When I offer you survival
G
You say it's hard enough to live
D                  A
Don't tell me that it's over
        G
Stand up, poor and tired but more than this
 
D               A
How do you know that you're right?
              G
If you're not nervous anymore
D           A                G
It's not so bad, it's not so bad
 
 
BRIDGE

Higher and higher
 
We're gonna take it
 
Down to the wire
 
We're gonna make it

Out of the fire

Higher and higher

Higher and higher
 
We're gonna take it
 
Down to the wire
 
We're gonna make it out

Whoa-oh-oh-oh!

Higher and higher
 
 
  OUTRO
 
G        A       Bm
It ain't hard to hold
        F#m         G
When it shines like gold

You'll remember me
