[Verse]
G                           C           G
As I turned my head to your side of the bed...

G                         C       G
Why are you awake? What's on your mind

G                      C           G
To this awful news try not to hold on

G                               C                 G
The day will come, the sun will rise and we'll be fine
[Verse]
G                    C           G
As long as I feel as strong as I feel

G                   C         G
I will carry you as long as I can

G                           C      G
As hard on yourself, please pardon yourself

G                       C               G
Do the best you can and that won't go unseen
[Chorus]
G                               C
How do I know when it's time to stop

D
Runnin' from the things I do, bein' things I'm not

           C                 G
Oh, I have tried, but I just changed my mind

      D             C             G
Every night befalls every morning light

G                                 C
How do I know that you will never stop

D
Knowing me and trusting me, loving me a lot

            C                 G
Oh, I have tried, but I just changed my mind

      D             C             G
Every night befalls every morning light
[Bridge] G
              G
Well, there's only so many ways

        G         F         C
You can give your loving to me

    D                         G           C
But I'd give my soul for just one of them now

    D                     G            C    G
I'd give up the drinkin', just tell me how

             G
And there's only so many years

      G       F       C
I can give my love to you

    D                    G       C
And I spent the last one hidden away

    D                   G          C
Screaming my lungs out, nothing to say
G [Outro]
G                           C           G
As I turned my head to your side of the bed...

G                         C       G
Why are you awake? What's on your mind

G                      C           G
To this awful news try not to hold on

G                               C                 G
The day will come, the sun will rise and we'll be fine
