Intro: D A
verse 1
D
I was huddled in a doorway
A
Fighting off a trance
D A
With my bag pulled to my chest
D A
She asked me if I was waiting for something
D
I said the answer one thousand times over was yes
Pre-Chorus
F#m G
Well here I am or a shadow of me
D
Oh but deep down inside
D
My heart runs free
verse 2
D A
I was a used shoe salesman
D A
And I was working the graveyard shift
D A
I was listening for the bell on the door
D
when you walk in
D A
I was living in the weeds somewheres
D A
And I was breathing through a straw in the swamp
D A D
And I was gasping for air wondering what it was for
F#m G
But I've a child now and she's better than me
D D
But deep down inside, I hope she makes the same mistakes as me
F#m G
But sometimes love is all it's supposed to be
D G
But it could break you, remember, take care of your heart
E A D A
And cry, oh and somehow we'll survive another day
verse 3
D A
By picking up our feet
D A D
I was wandering around in the streets somewheres outside of Eden
D A
She came down and let me in
D A
And then she left for the light
D A
And I was creeping through, through the brush and the shadows
D A
Man, I was scared for my life
F#m G
But I am saved now, somebody died for my sins
D
And I'm so glad, it wasn't me
F#m G
Sometimes love's not such a crazy thing,
D G
But it could break you, remember, take care of your heart
E A F#m D A
And cry, oh and somehow we'll survive another day
D A
Oh just for another day
D A
Not by walking away
D
Now stay
F#m G
But sometimes love is all it's supposed to be
D G
But it could break you, remember, take care of your heart
E A F#m D
And cry, oh and somehow we'll survive another day
D A
Just one other day
