[Intro - Chris Cheney]
A minorAm G+G FF G+G
A minorAm G+G FF G+G
A minorAm G+G FF G+G
Ear-ly War-ning
A minorAm G+G FF G+G
Ear-ly War-ning
[Verse 1 - 360]
A minorAm G+G
You started having these migraines at a ripe age
FF G+G
Doctor gave you codeine just to ease a slight pain
A minorAm G+G
Started crippling you by the age of 14
FF G+G
So the doctor decided to give you morphine
A minorAm G+G
That was the first time you tasted what the high was like
FF G+G
Your brain was so fragile you weren't in your right mind
A minorAm G+G
We never understood that when you used to have it
FF G+G
We were seeing the beginnings of a future addict
A minorAm G+G
And that's a honest mistake the doctor had made
FF G+G
He only meant to help you in a positive way
A minorAm G+G
And pointing fingers in this whole shit is not going change
FF G+G
That we all awoken a demon that was locked in a cage
A minorAm G+G
I know the drug way of life is a lonely one
FF G+G
I hate that it went and attracted both of us
A minorAm G+G
And opiates are so hard to overcome
FF F*
Playing Russian roulette with a needle is a loaded gun
[Hook - Chris Cheney]
A minorAm G+G FF G+G
Early warnings never come
A minorAm G+G FF G+G
Life was good when we were young
A minorAm G+G FF
Just like the early morning sun
G+G
We will rise up
A minorAm G+G Am* Am* G+G
Life was good when we were young
[Verse 2 - 360]
A minorAm G+G
We didn't know you were getting bullied everyday
FF G+G
Tortured, but wasn't strong enough to ever say
A minorAm G+G FF
School is such a tender age it molds you in every way
G+G
Forms and forever shapes your mental state
A minorAm G+G
After copping more abuse from the friends you made
FF G+G
All you wanted was to get some fucking better mates
A minorAm G+G
So when your head would ache, you just medicate
FF G+G
Now you found a better way to get away from any pain
A minorAm G+G
So while you crying and lying in your bed awake
FF G+G
You know when the doc injects your veins it'll set you straight
A minorAm G+G
We didn't know because you didn't have to ever chase
FF G+G
Saying you got a migraine would take you to a better place
A minorAm G+G
Yo, this shit is going overboard
FF G+G
Too deep for me to help you stay afloat at all
A minorAm G+G
All we've got left is hope so we hope for more
FF FF FF
'cause having false hope's better than no hope at all
[Hook - Chris Cheney]
A minorAm G+G FF G+G
Early warnings never come
A minorAm G+G FF G+G
Life was good when we were young
A minorAm G+G FF
Just like the early morning sun
G+G
We will rise up
A minorAm G+G FF G+G
Life was good when we were young
[Verse 3 - 360]
A minorAm G+G
There's a day I can't wipe from my memory though
FF G+G
Like a episode of my life that I'm forgetting to close
A minorAm G+G
He was done from life and ready to go
FF G+G
Ready to hang his head in shame but at the end of a rope
A minorAm G+G
His addiction has ruined everything though
FF G+G
Pushed away all his family and friends that he knows
A minorAm G+G
We could of helped but he was too ashamed to let us all know
FF G+G
We thought he found us annoying so we left him alone
A minorAm G+G
For some reason Mum and Dad was sensing it though
FF G+G
Their instinct kicked in so they went to his home
A minorAm G+G
He was trying to get clean so he went it alone
FF G+G
So many downers he would of ended up dead on his own (yeah)
A minorAm G+G
I got a call that made me burst into tears }
FF G+G }
I never heard my Dad crying, it hurt me to hear } Fingerpick Chords
A minorAm G+G }
Told him it was a blessing it could be worse than it is }
FF FF FF }
Bring him home to those that love him for the person he is }

Just like the early morning sun

Life was good when we were young
[Outro - Chris Cheney]
A minorAm G+G
Now I'm stoppin' at a red light
FF G+G
Wake up on the wrong side, now
A minorAm G+G
Stoppin at a red light
FF G+G
Gettin off this ride, now
A minorAm G+G
Stoppin' at a red light
FF G+G
Wake up on the wrong side, now
A minorAm G+G
Stoppin at a red light
FF G+G
Gettin off this ride, now
A minorAm G+G FF G+G
