Am G                 Em
   Born to push you around
C                   Am
  Better just stay down
G         Em
 You put away,
            C
He hits the flesh,
             Am
You hit the ground
G                 Em
Mouth so full of lies
C                   Am
 Tend to block your eyes
G                Em
 Just keep them closed,
               C        D
Keep praying, just keep waiting

Chorus:
Am  G                  Em   C
    Waiting for the one,
Am     G                Em   C
   The day that never comes,
Am          G                       Em   C
   When you stand up and feel the warmth
Am         G                Em   C     (E5)
   But the sunshine never comes,   no
E                          Am  G     Am
  No, the sunshine never comes

Am G   Am

Am G                      Em
   Pushed you across that line
C                     Am
  Just stay down this time
G             Em
  Hide in yourself,
             C                      Am
Crawl in yourself, you'll have your time
G                  Em
God I'll make them pay
C                   Am
  Take you back one day
G              Em                 C      D      Am
 I'll end this day, I'll splatter color on this grey

Chorus:
G                 Em  C
Waiting for the one,
Am    G                Em  C
  The day that never comes
Am         G                      Em    C
  When you stand up and feel the warmth
Am        G               Em    C  (E5)
  But the sunshine never comes
