CAPO ON 4
C F C
Sometimes in the morning I am petrified and can't move
F C G
Awake but cannot open my eyes
C F C
And the weight is crushing down on my lungs I know I can't breathe
F C G
And hope someone will save me this time
C F C
And your mother's still calling you insane and high
F C G
swearing it's different this time
C F C
And you tell her to give in to the demons that possess her
F C G
and that God ever blessed her insides
C F C
Then you hang up the phone and feel badly for upsetting things
F C G
Crawl back into bed to dream of a time
C F C
When your heart was open wide and you loved things just because
F C G
Like the sick and the dying
C F C
And sometimes when you're on you're really fucking on
F C G
And your friends they sing along and they love you
C F C
But the lows are so extreme that the good seems fucking cheap
F C G
and it teases you for weeks in its absense
C
But you'll fight and you'll make it through
F C
You'll fake it if you have to
F C G
and you'll show up for work with a smile
C
You'll be be better and you'll be smarter
F C
and more grown up and a better daughter
F C G
or son and a real good friend
C
You'll be awake you'll be alert
F C
You'll be positive though it hurts
F C G
And you'll laugh and embrace all your friends
C
You'll be a real good listener
F C
You'll be honest you'll be brave
F C G
You'll be handsome and you'll be beautiful
C
You'll be happy

same chords persist throughout the solo
C
Your ship may be coming in
F C
You're weak but not giving in
F C G
To the cries and the wails of the valley below
C
And your ship may be coming in
