Bb majorBb   FF   G minorGm    FF
Morning light meet the day
   DmDm  C majorC    BB
Nervous eyes   look both ways
         FF    Bb majorBb    FF
And it just won't matter, spring or fall
         DmDm  FF        Bb majorBb
There's bread to win   and shots to call
     Eb MajorEb        Bb majorBb
And there ain't nobody out there
             FF
Just a wild uncertainty

  It's in your stride but it ain't no fun

Did someone push you
did someone stall
       FF       Bb majorBb     FF
Whatever the reasons there was lots to learn
      DmDm   C majorC        Bb majorBb
To get home safely   and not get burned
     Eb MajorEb       Bb majorBb
And it's all so cold and empty

As you watch the setting sun

  You've picked up every dirty trick
    Eb MajorEb
Just to keep yourself always on the run

I dream of comfort and friendship long

The scars still hurt me and I don't let them heal
      DmDm   C majorC       Bb majorBb
Each one's a lesson
each one's a shield

And I may even love you dearly

In my fear of you
