Verse
D# Cm Ab
On a sunny day, I wake up
A# D#
And the light drains in
Cm Ab
And automatically, I reach out
A# D#
And I feel the warm weight on my fingers

A# D#

Ab A# D#
Only for today
D# Cm Ab
I let it fall away and come down
A# D#
Let it dress me up
Cm Ab
And as it I knew it would, there's no doubt
A# D#
Just a troubadour tied to my mooring
Cm Ab
Staring at my chains again, they're cut off
A# D#
But I won't get out
