I wrote this down when i just started playing, so there might be some
mistakes in it.
[A] I don't feel the suns commin [G]out today
Stayin [D]in, gonna [G]find a better [A]way.
[A]As I sit here in this [G]misery, I don't think
I'll [D]ever see (lord)[G] the sun from [A]here.
[D] And o[G]h, as I fade a[A]way.[D] They'll all [G]look at me and [A]say.
And they'll say, [D]Hey look at him,[G] i'll never [A]live that way.
But thats [G]ok,[D] Their just afraid of change.
When you feel your life ain't worth livin
You've gotta stand up and take a look arounds you
then a look way up to the sky.
And when your deepest thoughts are broken
keep on dreamin boy, cause when you stop dreamin
its time to die.
And as we play the darts of tomarrow
some ways will work and other ways we'll play.
But I know we can't all stay here forever
so I want to write my words on the face of the sky,
.. and then they'll paint it.
(Verse chords for solo)
And oh as I fade away, they'll all look at me and say,
And they'll say, hey look at him and where he is these days,
When life is hard you have to change.
When life is hard you have to change.
When life is hard you have to change.
The vocals get alittle hard to fit in, in the second verse and chorus.
Listen to the CD, you'll get the general idea. Alot of the time he plays
the A chord hes doing this riff thing. It looks like this in tab:
Again listen to the CD to here where he does the riff and to get the
feel.
