Lyrics

When you (F)try your best but you (Am)don’t suc ceed,

when you (F)get what you want but (Am)not what you need,

when you (F)feel so tired but (Am)you can’t sleep,

stuck in re (F)verse.

And the (F)tears come stream ing (Am)down your face,

when you (F)lose some thing you (Am)can’t re place,

when you (F)love some one but it (Am)goes to waste,

(C)could it be (F)worse?

Lights (F)will (C)guide

you home

and (F)ig (C)nite

your bones

and I (F)will (C)try

to fix you.
