G
I woke up as heavy as lead

an ocean of worry weighs

D
me down in bed but

[Chorus]

             Em        Ebaug
cause there's things to do

         G           Em6
Theres a life to live

    C      Cm
Must ignore my stupid head

G Gaug G Gaug [Verse 2]

G
Friends float above in

the wind bright balloons

             D
pulling them up as they grin

[Chorus]

               Em       Ebaug
cause there's things to do

           G      Em6
there's a life to live

     C     Cm
must ignore the

things I think G Gaug G Gaug [Bridge]

           G
It's like walking around

with a stone for a heart

       Gaug
people swimming in honey

as your life falls apart

      Em
It's cold and it's dark

And there's no way out

  Ebaug
I felt like you once

I wish I could shout

           G
It's like walking around

with a stone for a heart

       Gaug
people swimming in honey

as your life falls apart

      Em
It's cold and it's dark

And there's no way out

  Eb
I felt like you once

I wish I could shout [Verse 3]

    G
you never can undo the brain

now it knows the holes it

     Ebaug
will fall as its trained

[Chorus]

            Em      Ebaug
cause there's things to do

         G        Em6
There's a life to live

             C
Watch them laugh while

    Cm
you stay in the rain
