Verse
F Dm A#
On a sunny day, I wake up
C F
And the light drains in
Dm A#
And automatically, I reach out
C F
And I feel the warm weight on my fingers
Dm A#
Yellow with the strain, I guess, I let up
C F
Kick the rubble on the eightfold
Dm Gm7 G#maj7 G7
I see myself, am I dreaming again? 'Cos it feels like...
C Cm Cmaj7 F F# B7
All my life I've been so sure I'm alright
A# C
But sometimes I'm lonely
A# F
And the only things I care about
D# C F C A# F C
Fall apart like macaroni
A# C F
Only for today
F Dm A#
I let it fall away and come down
C F
Let it dress me up
Dm A#
And as it I knew it would, there's no doubt
C F
Just a troubadour tied to my mooring
Dm A#
Staring at my chains again, they're cut off
C F
But I won't get out
Dm A# G#maj7 G7
I see myself as a marionette, yeah, it feels like...
C Cm Cmaj7 F F# B7
All my life I've been so sure I'm alright
D Dm Dmaj7 G G# C#7
Banging my drum, blow the fife, circle the pain all night
C D
But sometimes I'm lonely
C G
And the stupid things I think about
F D G D C G D
Call my name, seems like I'm only
C D G
Waiting for today

While the old folk pray for tomorrow I'm waiting for today
