Originally released at October 2nd 2006 as part of the Killers' second album "Sam't Town".
Although this track wasn't released as a single, it is a fan favourite, being one of the
10 most played songs in concerts throughout the whole Killer's timeline.
A simple melody accompanied by a powerful guitar delivery by Dave Koermer and the usual
sentimental breakdown midline.

Bm When I offer you survival
G You say it's hard enough to live
Em It's not so bad, it's not so Gbad
A How do you know Bmthat you're right? G A
VERSE I
I aBmwoke on the roadside
In the Gland of the free ride
And I can't Empull it any longer
The Bmsun is beating down my neck
So I Bmran with the devil
Left a Gtrail of excuses
Like a Emstone on the water
The Bmelements decide my fate
Watch it Ggo . D. . &Aquot;blDing"
CHORUS
DWhen I offer you Asurvival
GYou say it's hard enough to live
DDon't tell me that Ait's over
Stand upG, Poor and tired but more than this
DHow do you know Athat you're right?
If you're not Gnervous anymore
DIt's not so Abad, it's not so Gbad
VERSE II
I feel my vision slipping Bmin and out of focus
But I'm Gpushing on for that horizon
I'm pushing Emon
Now I've got the Bmblowing wind against my face
So you sling rocks at the rip tide
Am I Gwrong or am I right?
I hit the Embottom with a "huh!" - Quite strange
I get my Bmglory in the desert rain
Watch it Ggo . D. . &Aquot;blDing"
CHORUS
DWhen I offer you Asurvival
GYou say it's hard enough to live
DDon't tell me that Ait's over
Stand upG, poor and tired but more than this
DHow do you know Athat you're right?
If you're not Gnervous anymore
DIt's not so Abad, it's not so Gbad
BRIDGE
DHigher and higher
We're gonna take it
Down to the wire
We're gonna make it
GOut of the Afire D Bm
GHigher and Ahigher D
DHigher and higher
We're gonna take it
Down to the wire
We're gonna make it out
GWhoa-Aoh-Doh-Bmoh!
GHigher and Ahigher D
OUTRO
GIt ain't Ahard to Bmhold
When it F#mshines like Ggold
You'll reAmember Dme
