"Stay Alive" by Jose Gonzalez Note on Tuning: I arranged this song in a modified version of open D tuning because it sounds great for just a solo guitar! Basically it is DADGAD but with the g-string tuned up to an A, thereby making it DADAAD. Hope you enjoy, God bless. ~Tuning: DADAAD ~Capo on 4th fret F# C# D#m B d --0-------0-------0-------0 a --0-------0-------0-------0 a --5-------0-------0-------0 D --4-------2-------4-------0 A --0-------0-------2-------5 D --0-------0-------0-------5 INTRO: F# C# D#m D#m C# B VERSE:

^F#There's a rhythm in r^C#ush these ^D#mdays Where the l^D#mights don't move and the ^C#colors don't f^Bade ^F#Leaves you empty with no^C#thing but d^D#mreams In a w^D#morld gone shallow, in a w^C#orld gone l^Bean
