Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

I feel this burden

Upon my shoulders

And it keeps on

Dragging me down

And as I drift, through this endless ocean

I keep hoping I'll be found before I drown

And I know on some days

Nothing seems to go your way

But you're holding on

When I pass you on an empty street

You look at me, but our eyes don't meet

And when I see your picture on my wall

I catch myself, trying to forget it all

And I know on some days, nothing seems to go your way

But you're holding on

And I know on some days, nothing seems to go my way

But I'm holding on

When you say, that you can't see

Open up your eyes, look at me

When you say, that you're sorry

Take a look inside, what do you feel

C# | G# | Bbm | F# for the rest of the song

Only a whisper, you left behind

A silent echo of a, silent goodbye

And all your footprints that once remain

Are slowly starting to get washed away

And I know on some days, nothing seems to go your way

But you're holding on

And I know on some days, nothing seems to go my way

But I'm holding on

And everything you do

And everything you say

And every place you go

And everyone you meet

And everyone you know

And everything you have

And everything you want

Leads you in the wrong direction

When you're trying to find some action

Trying to make a difference

But nobody sees it

Everyone is too obsessed with what they own

And I know on some days, nothing seems to go your way

But you're holding on

And I know on some days, nothing seems to go my way

But I'm holding on

And I know on some days, nothing seems to go your way

But you're holding on

And I know on some days, nothing seems to go my way

But I'm holding on
