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