It suits my voice nicely, but don't be afraid to move it around to your liking :-)
G C G Sometimes in the morning I am petrified and can't move C G D Awake but cannot open my eyes G C G And the weight is crushing down on my lungs, I know I can't breathe C G D And hope someone will save me this time G C G And your mother's still calling you insane and high C G D Swearing it's different this time G C G And you tell her to give in to the demons that possess her C G D And that God never blessed her insides G C G Then you hang up the phone and feel badly for upsetting things C G D And crawl back into bed to dream of a time G C G C When your heart was open wide and you loved things just because G D Like the sick and the dying G C G And sometimes when you're on you're really fucking on C G D And your friends they sing along and they love you G C G But the lows are so extreme that the good seems fucking cheap C G D And it teases you for weeks in its absence G But you'll fight and you'll make it through C G You'll fake it if you have to C G D And you'll show up for work with a smile G And you'll be be better and you'll be smarter C G And more grown up and a better daughter C G D Or son and a real good friend G And you'll be awake, you'll be alert C G You'll be positive though it hurts C G D And you'll laugh and embrace all your friends G And you'll be a real good listener C G You'll be honest, you'll be brave C G You'll be handsome, you'll be beautiful D You'll be happy
G C G C G D x2
G Your ship may be coming in C G You're weak but not giving in C G D To the cries and the wails of the valley below G Your ship may be coming in C G You're weak but not giving in C G D And you'll fight it, you'll go out fighting all of them G C G C G D x2 (Fade out)
