[D] [Dm]
I wake up every morning bright and early, [Bb] roll out of bed but I'm never quite [Dm]
alone
Naked is pulling me in all directions, and I'll be problem if you'll be on the run
Sometimes the pressure will just drive you crazy, [Bb] at any time I could [Dm] explode
I need some peace of mind, it's got me dying, don't wanna lose it but I'm turning down the road
I need [Db] a moment cause [C] I've prayed myself [B] to feel, [Bb] we all need [F] a moment in [A] our lives
[Dm] Work's hard [Db] but it takes too long [C] and that's just where it [G]
begins, [Bb] tension [F] is had and a soul [A] is torn
[A] [Dm] I sit in traffic every single morning, just as I [Bb] got right from playing into the grind
[Dm]
Ain't getting the money so I feed my family, but I can't raise them cause I ain't got the time
I got no free days on my busy schedule, I turn the page and it's the same
Don't like my situation, you don't either, don't wanna look back, scared of working life away
[D] I need [Dbm] a moment cause [C] I've prayed myself [Bm] to feel, [Bb] we all need [F] a moment in [A] our lives
[F]
[Dm] Work's hard [Db] but it takes too long [C] and that's just where it [G]
begins, [Bb] tension [F] is had and a soul [A] is torn
[Dm]
[F] But every now [C] and then, I drive [Eb] alone, and I don't [Bb] get around
Hot summer [F] day, a gentle breeze [Dm] that [C] feels [Bb] alright, on [F] the road
And I can't feel [C] no pain, on [Eb] this train
[F] [Eb] Enjoy [Bb] the sights, I feel [F] alive, relaxing here [Dm] just [C] feels [Bb] alright
It's all [F] from my heart
