F
I can't wake up
        Dm                                Gm
See me running 'round the corner, move me up into the upswing
F
Call me undone
        Dm                                Gm
When I speak about the truth, I'm only brought up to the downbeat
F
It's not easy there
Gm
When you feel the wear
F
Patience brings the tear
Gm
Oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
F
Everyday do you notice that we're never free?
    Dm                Gm
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?
F
Everyday we are running 'round trapped in our seat
    Dm                Gm
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?
    Dm                Gm
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?

[Verse 2]
F
Pushing paper
        Dm                                Gm
I do everything I'm told, and yeah, I do it for the money
F
Understating
        Dm                                Gm
Every action that I take until I know there's something coming
F
It's not easy there
Gm
When you feel the wear
F
Patience brings the tear
Gm
Oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
F
Everyday do you notice that we're never free?
    Dm                Gm
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?
F
Everyday we are running 'round trapped in our seat
    Dm                Gm
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?
F
Everyday do you notice that we're never free?
    Dm                Gm
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?
F
Everyday we are running 'round trapped in our seat
    Dm                Gm
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?

[Bridge]
Am       Bb                    F                C
The messages won't stop, they just keep pulling at you
Am       Bb                    F                C
Teasing us with the thought that that is something we'll do
Am       Bb                    F                C
If we could hold the tongue and focus all our time through
Am       Bb                    F                C
We would just rise above this cycle that we're bound to

[Chorus]
F
(Everyday do you notice that we're never free?)
    Dm                Gm
(Oh, why can't you be happy with me?)
F
(Everyday we are running)
(Everyday we are running)
(Everyday we are running)
F
Everyday do you notice that we're never free?
    Dm                Gm
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?
F
Everyday we are running 'round trapped in our seat
    Dm                Gm
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?
F
Everyday do you notice that we're never free?
    Dm                Gm
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?
F
Everyday we are running 'round trapped in our seat
    Dm                Gm
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?
F
Everyday do you notice that we're never free?
    Dm                Gm
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?
F
Everyday we are running 'round trapped in our seat
    Dm                Gm
Oh, why can't you be happy with me?
