Eb--G# x2
Verse 1:
G#
Caught in a cold sweat
Stuck splitting hairs
and drinking too much
Fm C#
I'm on my way to striking out
G#
Go to sleep with the pressure
D#/G
of everyone watching and waiting
They're yours for the taking
Fm C#
but I still have my doubts
Refrain:
D#
Before you ask which way to go
C#
remember where you've been
Chorus:
G#
Stay awake get a
grip and get out
C#
You're safe from the
weight of the world
G#
Just take a second to
C#
set things straight
Fm
I'll be fine even though
C#
I'm not always right
I can count on the
G#
sun to shine
Dedication takes
C#
A lifetime
D#
But dreams only
last for a night
Verse 2:
G#
Figure it out
Boy you're tripping so
pull yourself together
Fm
Or you'll wash
C#
up like the rest
G#
This ship is sinking
I'm thinking I'm done for
I'll watch as the sails
disappear under water
Fm C#
Cause I'm no captain yet
Refrain:
D#
Before you ask which way to go
C#
remember where you've been
Chorus:
G#
Stay awake get a
grip and get out
C#
You're safe from the
weight of the world
G#
Just take a second to
C#
set things straight
Fm
I'll be fine even though
C#
I'm not always right
I can count on the
G#
sun to shine
Dedication takes
C#
A lifetime
D#
But dreams only
last for a night
Bridge:
G#(hold)
Believe you me
I'll give them everything
I'd tell them anything
To show them everything
G#
Believe you me
I'll give them everything
Cm
I'd tell them anything
C#
To show them everything
G#
Cause you ain't the only
ones who want to live it up
You ain't the only ones
Fm
You ain't the only ones
who want to live it up
C#
You ain't the only ones
G#
You ain't the only ones
who want to live it up
Fm
You ain't the only ones
C#
You ain't the only ones
who want to live it up
You ain't the only ones
