Lyrics

You feel like a (C)can dle

in a (D)hur ri cane, just like a (C)pic ture

in a (D)bro ken (G)frame,

a (C)lone and help less

like (D)you’ve lost your fight, but you’ll be al (Am)right, you’ll be al (C)right.

’Cause when push comes to shove, you taste what you’re made of.

You might bend ’til you break, ’cause it’s all you can take.

On your knees, you look up, de cide you’ve had e nough.

You get (Cmaj7)mad, you get (Em)strong, wipe your (D)hands, shake it off, then you stand,

then you stand,

Life’s like a (C)nov el

on ly (D)one way (G)down.

Take (C)what you’re giv en be (D)fore it’s your gone.

And start hold in’ (Am)on,

’Cause when push comes to shove, you taste what you’re made of.

You might bend ’til you break, ’cause it’s all you can take.

On your knees, you look up, de cide you’ve had e nough.

You get (Cmaj7)mad, you get (Em)strong, wipe your (D)hands, shake it off, then you stand,

then you stand,

Life’s like a

Ev ’ry time you get up and get back in the race, one more small piece of you starts to fall in to place.
