Keep Yourself Alive (Live at The Rainbow)

[Intro]

Yeah

That's right, keep yourself alive

Yeah! Ayy, yeah

[Verse 1]

I was told a million times of all the troubles in my way

Might you grow a little wiser, little better every day

But if I crossed a million rivers, and I rode a million miles

Still be where I started, bread and butter for a smile

[Verse 2]

Sold a million mirrors in a shop in alleyway

But I never saw my face in any window any day

Now they say your folks are telling you, "Be a superstar"

Tell you, just be satisfied, stay right where you are

[Chorus]

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

All you people, keep yourself alive

That's right

That's right

Woo!

[Verse 3]

Well I loved a million women in a belladonic haze

And I ate a million dinners brought to me on silver trays

Give me everything I need, feed my body and my soul

Grow a little bigger, maybe that can be my goal

[Verse 4]

Told a million times of all the people in my way

How I'd have to keep on trying and get better every day

But if I crossed a million rivers, rode a million miles

Still be where I started, same as when I started

[Chorus]

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

All you people, keep yourself alive

[Drum Solo to Guitar Solo]

Keep yourself alive, keep yourself alive

Take you on your time and honey, honey, you survive

Do you think you're better every day?

No, I just think I'm two steps nearer to my grave

Keep yourself alive, keep yourself alive

All you people, keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive, keep yourself alive

All you people, keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive, keep yourself alive (C'mon, c'mon)

All you people, keep yourself alive

(Thank you!)
