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