D MajorD       G+G
No time to be wayward

No time to be unwound
D MajorD           G+G
With darkness at your doorstep
     B minorBm     A augmentedA
Keep your feet on the ground

Verse:

There will be times of injustice
D MajorD                 G+G
Times when there’s more lost than found
   D MajorD            G+G
Down times mixed with days of wonder
   B minorBm         A augmentedA
A majorA real-life spinning merry-go-round


Chorus:
     D MajorD
With this back against the wall
     G+G     B minorBm
All will soon be revealed

        G+G         D MajorD
With just this back against this wall

The signs will serve as your guide

Above the water with it held high

May you always go the distance
      B minorBm      A augmentedA
Through the darkness and the light

Verse:
    D MajorD           G+G
All the signs say pick up the pieces

All the signs say make a stand as one
    D MajorD          G+G
What survives the long cold winter
    B minorBm          A augmentedA
Will be stronger and can’t be undone

With just this back against this wall

With this back against the wall
