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