When you need a ray of shine

When your weary shoulders start to slouchin

From holding all that weight that you cant see
G                                D
When thre aint a steady foot to stand on

And you're to quick to thinkin on your feet

Time for rollin in the hay
Time for stealing

A little time back from the sun

Borrow from to-morrow
         A
Fore to-morrow has be-gun

And when the joy you found becomes un-grounded

And all the sound a-round you cant be hushed
                                   D
When you find you're sittin in the darkness
    A
And the darkness Feels like all there ever was
         G
When your smile fades
          F#m
When your heart lacks
         Em         Asus4  A
Toss your care down
          D
Tilt your chair back
