Vital Signs

Survivor is an American rock band formed in 1977 by core members Jim Peterik and Frankie Sullivan. The band achieved its greatest success in the 1980s with its album-oriented rock (AOR), which garnered many charting singles, especially in the United States. Only one hit &quot;Eye of the Tiger&quot; in 1982 but with the addition of frontman Jimi Jamison scored big with several #1 hit MTV videos and singles like &quot;Burning Heart&quot; (US #2), &quot;The Search Is Over&quot; (#4 US), and &quot;High on You&quot; (#8 US) continued to chart in the mid-1980s. 

# Eye Of The Tiger by Survivor, 1982
[Am]Risin' up, [F]back on the street
[G]Did my time, took my [Am]chances
[Am]Went the distance, now I'm [F]back on my feet
Just a [G]man and his will to sur[Am]vive.

[Am]So many times, it [F]happens too fast
[G]You trade your passion for [Am]glory.
[Am]Don't lose your grip on the [F]dreams of the past,
You must [G]fight just to keep them [Am]alive.

Chorus
It's the [Dm]eye of the tiger, it's the [C]thrill of the [G]fight,
Risin' [Dm]up to the challenge of our [C]rival, [G]
And the [Dm]last known survivor stalks his [C]prey in the [G]night,
And he's [Dm]watching us [C]all with the [F]eye of the [Am]tiger.

[Am]Face to face, [F]out in the heat
[G]hanging tough, staying [Am]hungry.
[Am]They stack the odds, still we [F]take to the street
For the [G]kill with the skill to sur[Am]vive

Chorus

[Am]Risin' up, [F]straight to the top
[G] Had the guts, got the [Am]glory
[Am]Went the distance, now I'm [F]not gonna stop
Just a [G]man and his will to sur[Am]vive.

Chorus

There's a story in my eyes
D         C         G        C
Turn the pages of desire
D        C                   G       C
now its time to trade those dreams
D        C                Em
for the rush of passions fire

and I feel the hand of fate
         G                D

I've been holding back the night.

I've been searching for a clue from you.
D          C               G       C
I'm gonna try with all my might
D             C                Em
to make this story line come true.
                  G               D7
Can you feel me tremble when we touch?
                          Em
Can you feel the hand of fate
          G             D
reaching out to both of us?
                        G
This love affair can't wait.

CHORUS:
G             C                 D         C          G
I can't hold back,  I'm on the edge...(I can't hold back)
G             C                 D
Your voice explodes inside my head
G             C                  Am
I can't hold back, I won't back down.
         C           D           G

Another shooting star goes by

and in the night the silence speaks to you and I
C            D                C
and now the time has come at last
              D               Em
dont let the moment run too fast
                G               D7
I can feel you tremble when we touch
                        Em
and I feel the hand of fate
         G              D
reaching out to both of us.........
           C           G       C
There's a story in my eyes,
D         C         G      C
turn the pages of desire
D         C                  G        C
now its time to trade those dreams
D        C                   Em
for the rush of passion's fire

I don't, I need it on
G                  D
You like the light coming through the windows
 Bm                      A
I sleep late, so I just keep 'em all closed
G                  D
You ignore the music on the radio
Bm                 A
I don't, I sing-a-long


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no

And you don't ask for me to change

Tell me how we're not alike
       Bm               A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                   A
'Cause we work so well and we don't even know why
 G              D
You can call it fire and ice
    Bm                  A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
We don't even know why, no no

We don't even know why, no no no

We like it in the end of time


[Verse 2]
G                        D
Cold outside and you're just in a T-shirt
Bm                   A
I have cold blood even in a sweater
G                         D
You start your night sippin' by the Kilo
Bm                   A
I don't, I know you know


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no

And you don't ask for me to change

[Bridge]
G                          D
Somehow we end up on the same side
Bm                          A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright
G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine

Somehow we end up on the same side (up on the same side)

Crash Years

Intro  D     Bm7   G     A     x2


Verse 1
    D                              Bm7
We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A
I don't even know her name, I guess foolish pride's to blame


Chorus 
          D                        D7
Now, I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away
        Bm7                 F#              G                    A
And my heart won't tell my mind to tell my mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
        Bm7 A   G                              Gm
Now I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away


Interlude   D     Bm7   G     A     x2


Verse 2
          D                           Bm7
Wise man next to me did say 'bout the one that got away
        G                    A
Son, I missed my chance 
           D                            Bm7
Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase
     G               A
Ask her to dance, go on, son
           G                 A              G                  A
You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith


Chorus
          D                        D7
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
         Bm7 A   G                               Gm
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith
 
          D                        D7
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
         Bm7 A    Bm7 A       Bm7 A       G                      G

Situations

Am                              E
There are children standing here,
                              G
Arms outstretched into the sky,
                          D
Tears drying on their face.
              Am
He has been here.
                          E
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
                           G
Fathers lost without a trace.
                           D
A nation blind to their disgrace,
                        Am
Since he's been here.
                    E
And I see no bravery,
 G                  D
No bravery in your eyes anymore.

Only sadness.

(Continue the same chord progression)

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Says, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
