C majorC DmDm FF C majorC

Verse:
C majorC
Seven months on her own a new life on the way
C majorC
Her mom gone too early
C majorC
Advice come too late
  DmDm
The churches were full
FF           C majorC
So I guess he ain't saving nobody

C majorC
And he cried every night
C majorC
Just like babies'll do
C majorC
To say "hey mom please wake up
C majorC
I'm counting on you"
    DmDm
"What a shame" friends would say
FF              C majorC
"We thought she'd end up being a doctor"

DmDm FF Bb majorBb FF (x2)

Chorus:
FF            DmDm       C majorC
Oh and I wonder if this life should be
FF                  DmDm          C majorC
Lived for greater purpose than being someone else's dream
FF             DmDm     FF C majorC
Oh and I wonder what this life should be
FF                   Bb majorBb  FF Bb majorBb
Lately all I need's just a little more sleep

Verse:
  C majorC
You dance back and forth between rhythm and blues
C majorC
It was brave or it was just stupid
C majorC
But to tell you the truth
  DmDm              FF    C majorC
If there was a difference I guess I never knew what it was

C majorC
It was red in the morning and three blues at night
C majorC
They said feeling sedated meant feeling all right
    DmDm               FF      C majorC
And if somethings been wrong I guess this is the light in the tunnel

Chorus:
FF            DmDm       C majorC
Oh and I wonder if this life should be
FF                   DmDm         C majorC
Lived for greater purpose than feeling nothing constantly
FF             DmDm      C majorC
Oh and I wonder what this life should be
FF                   Bb majorBb
Lately all I need's just a little more sleep

Verse:
  C majorC
Sometimes it's to wake up
        FF
And some to forget
  C majorC
The chemical answer to all the questions I have
   DmDm         FF             DmDm     C majorC
And I know I don't need it I just don't know where I'd be without it

Chorus:
FF            DmDm       C majorC
Oh and I wonder if this life should be
FF                  DmDm         C majorC
Lived for greater purpose than being someone else's dream
FF             DmDm     C majorC
Oh and I wonder what this life should be
FF                 Bb majorBb
Lately all I need is a little more sleep
N.C.
Just a little more
