C Em 3x

[Verse 1]
Am
Why does it feel so hard
   Em
To give just a little trust
Am
Feels like juggling in the dark
    Em
And all you end up is cut
Dm                           G
Going along, getting along believing
Dm                                      G
One day things will change but all you feel is

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
Am
Giving more than you can
Em
Trying to make things work
Am
Fighting in a ship on the ocean floor
Em
Dying over who drowns first
Dm                                  G
Too hurt to try anymore and so you give in
Dm                                           G
Thinking one day they'll change but all you feel is

[Verse 3]
Am
I don't want to start a fire
Em
Just to watch bridges burn
Am
Good intentions seal our fate
     Em
When everybody takes a turn
G                                          Dm
Give what you get when you get what wasn't give in
Em                                  G
Fighting for the last word, all you end up feel is
