A Better Son Daughter

G                           
Sometimes in the morning i am 
  C             G
petrified and can't move
C                G       D
Awake but cannot open my eyes
        G                          
And the weight is crushing down on 
   C                    G
my lungs i know i can't breath
    C                 G            
And hope someone will save me this 
D
time
     G                         
Your mother's still calling you 
 C          G
insane and high
C             G              D
Swearing it's different this time
        G                          
And you tell her to give in to the 
C           G
demons that possess her
         C        G         
And that god ever blessed her 
  D
insides
         G                         
Then you hang up the phone and feel
 C         G
 badly for upsetting things
    C               G            
And crawl back into bed to dream of 
D
a time
          G              C        
When your heart was open wide and 
    G                 C
you loved things just because
         G            D
Like the sick and the dying

    G                              
And sometimes when you're on you're
C               G
 really fucking on
         C                 G      
And your friends they sing along 
        D
and they love you
        G                          
But the lows are so extreme that 
  C                  G
the good seems fucking cheap
       C              G            
And it teases you for weeks in its 
D
absense
           G
But you'll fight and you'll make it 
through
       C              G
You'll fake it if you have to
           C           G           
And you'll show up for work with a 
D
smile
                 G
And you'll be be better you'll be 
smarter
           C               G
More grown up and a better daughter
   C         G         D
Or son and a real good friend
              G
And you'll be awake and you'll be 
alert
          C                  G
You'll be positive though it hurts
           C          G        
And you'll laugh and embrace all 
       D
your friends
                G
And you'll be a real good listener
          C                G
You'll be honest you'll be brave
          C                 
You'll be handsome you'll be 
 G

Your ship may be coming in
       C                   G
You're weak but not giving in
       C             G            
To the cries and the wails of the

valley below
     G
Your ship may be coming in
       C                   G
You're weak but not giving in
