G
He Doesn't Own A Gun
                     C
But he Fights for Survival Every Day
 G
Life Has Lost its Fun
                    C
But He's Trying to Find a Way
        D
He's Headed to the Coast if he Can Find a Ride
          C
And the Closet of his Heart has Nothing Left Inside
Am                                              D
But He's Got Hope and That's All That Really Matters

G                                               C

G                                       C
He Puts it Out and Says That'll be the Day, be the Day
G                                               C
He Smokes A Cigarette and Dreams about running Away, Far Away

He Puts it Out and Says That'll be the Day, be the Day

Verse 2:
G                                          C
Mom and Dad aren't Home, and they Haven't Been for a While
G                                          C
He's Out of Breath, But he tells himself "One More Mile"
D                                      C
He's in the Same Town, But Home Feels Far Away
                                   Am        D
And he's Learned By Now that the Drugs will Numb Him For the Day

G                                               C

G                                       C
He Puts it Out and Says That'll be the Day, be the Day
G                                               C
He Smokes A Cigarette and Dreams about running Away, Far Away
G                                       C                       G
