This is a tab for the acoustic version of Elevated; 
it's off of State Champ's acoustic EP called "The Acoustic Things". 

Standard: EADGBe 
CAPO2 

I don't know the picking lead in the beginning, just the chords. Feel free to contribute  
if you know it. 
The strumming pattern is "easy enough" to figure out...see what I did there? 

Chords: (you can mute the 2's on the G and C chords if you choose. I think they sound  
better that way.)

Intro: G C G C 

verse 1: 
G 
Pulled aside as if I was the wrong one, 

G 
You said it all and you made me the lost one. 

C 
Elevated by your greatest mistake, now I'm all alone. 

G 
I bet you couldn't tell that I felt the same way, 

G 
Struggling just to get to the next day. 

        C 
I'm not force fed lies while I'm by your side. 

Pre Chorus: 
Em                        C 
Shaking your head doesn't change this. 
G                                G F#/G Em 
Preparing myself for a train wreck, 
  G         D 
I can't be saved. 

Chorus: 
               C           G 
So tell me why can't you see 
                 D         Em D 
This is where you need to be? 
                         C         G 
You know, it's taken its toll on me, 
                 D         Em D 
But I don't feel invisible. 
               C             G 
So tell me why can't you see 
                  D         Em D 
This is where you need to be? 
                         C          G 
You know, it's taken its toll on me, 
                  D        Em D 
So I'll hope for a miracle. 
                             (After 1st Chorus: Interlude 1. After 2nd Chorus: Interlude 2 
Yeah, I'll hope for a miracle.                    After last Chorus, Em till the end.) 

Interlude 1: G 
Interlude 2: Em 

Bridge: 
C            D               Em 
   And if you want to be free, 
C                       D           Em 
   I can't be the one to make you believe. 
C                        D               Em 
    You've still got this promise to keep. 
C                 D             C        D 
    Step back and wash away the reckless intentions. 
Em                    G 
   They're leaving me breathless. 
C                            D 
  Find a way to stay in your skin.
