Gm F
Sometimes I swear I fall asleep singing
C Dm
Songs in my head just to drive away the demons
Gm F
To push aside any negative feelings
C Dm
Can't even say what I dream
[Verse 2]
Gm F
Sometimes all I hear is that clock ticking
C Dm Gm
I close my eyes and I find myself slipping back
F
Tearing pages out this notebook
C Dm
Ripping them to shreds cause they don't say what I mean
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm F
And then I take a deep breath
C
Step back, relax
Dm Gm
I think about all the good times and laughs that I shared yesterday
F
That I had today
C Dm
I'm so grateful cause I can say
[Chorus]
Gm F
I remember what it was like to not know peace
C Dm
Every waking moment a blur
Gm F
And I remember what it was like to not know love
C Dm
But now I receive what I return
Gm F
I remember what it was like to not know peace
C Dm
Every waking moment a blur
Gm F
And I remember what it was like to not know love
C Dm
But now I've returned
[Verse 3]
Gm F
Sometimes everybody gets caught wishing
C Dm
They had another life, had another mission
Gm F
They gotta make that incredible decision
C Dm
To trek along in service and light
[Verse 4]
Gm F
We all have to make the choice to rise above it
C Dm
It might be hard but grit your teeth and go and tough it out
Gm F
Scream and shout, do what you will but love it
C Dm
Cause this is our purpose in life
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm F
And then I take a deep breath
C
Step back, relax
Dm Gm
I think about all the good times and laughs that I shared yesterday
F
That I had today
C Dm
I'm so grateful cause I can say
[Chorus]
Gm F
I remember what it was like to not know peace
C Dm
Every waking moment a blur
Gm F
And I remember what it was like to not know love
C Dm
But now I receive what I return
Gm F
I remember what it was like to not know peace
C Dm
Every waking moment a blur
Gm F
And I remember what it was like to not know love
C Dm
But now I've returned
