Song Lyrics and Chords


[Intro]

Eb   Gm   Cm7  Gm/Bb
        

[Verse 1] -- (organ 1)
        
            Eb                     Gm       Cm7           Gm/Bb           
When you try your best, but you don't succeed
                Eb                     Gm           Cm7           Gm/Bb   
When you get what you want, but not what you need
            Eb                     Gm       Cm7           Gm/Bb   
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
                                Eb   Gm    Cm7   Gm/Bb   
Stuck in re - ver - se.


[Verse 2] -- (add organ 2)

               Eb                     Gm       Cm7         Gm/Bb      
When the tears come streaming down your face
                       Eb                 Gm       Cm7     Gm/Bb          
When you lose something you can't replace
                       Eb                     Gm       Cm7 Gm/Bb   
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
                           Eb   Gm    Cm7   Gm/Bb   
Could it be  wo - rse?


[Chorus 2] -- (piano & strings)

 Ab         Bbsus4         Bb 
Lights will gu  -  ide you home
Ab           Bbsus4    Bb   
    And ig - n -it- e      your bones
Ab              Bbsus4   Bb
    And I will   try        to fix you

        Eb            Gm       Cm7           Gm/Bb   
And high up above or down below
          Eb                  Gm     Cm7           Gm/Bb        
When you're too in love to let it go
           Eb                     Gm       Cm7           Gm/Bb   
If you never try, then you'll never know
         Eb   Gm    Cm7   Gm/Bb   
Just what you're wor - th
        

[Chorus 2]

Ab         Bbsus4         Bb 
Lights will gu  -  ide you home
Ab           Bbsus4    Bb   
    And ig - n -it- e      your bones
Ab              Bbsus4   Bb
    And I will   try        to fix you
