[Am]Each day the l[G]ight gets born
[Dm]From the body of the n[Am]ight I'm torn
[F]Into the blaze of the [C]sun lit morn [Am]I'm thrown[F][G]
[Am]So I do [G]what I can
[Dm]With a beating heart and [Am]my own two hands
[F]And a thirst to unde[C]rstand this s[Am]how[F]
[G]And the halls I [Am]hear it sung
[F]The youth is wasted [C]on the young
[Dm]And these are words that can [Em]weigh a ton you k[Am]now[F]
But one day yo[G]u'll know what they meant
[Am]When you wonder where [Em]the wonder went
[Dm]And all the world is si[C]nking like a st[G]one
Chorus:
[C]We are the [Dm]lucky ones
[Am]You mothers daughters you [F]fathers sons
[C]Dont you grow [Dm]old before your ti[Am]me[F][G]

[Am]Who take this weight u[F]pon ourt shoulders[C]
And make the [Dm]best out of [Am]life[F][G]

Verse 2:
[Am]Each night when the [G]darkness dawns
[Dm]And from the troubles of [Am]the day I'm drawn
[F]Into the solace of the [C]quiet song that gr[Am]ows[F][G]
[Am]In everything I [G]hear and see
[Dm]And through the smoke in the [Am]air I breathe
[F]And over arms that c[C]over me like [Am]home[F]
[G]And on the streets where you [Am]hear it said
[F]Our Last hopes have l[C]ong bed dead
[Dm]That's just the noise r[Em]inging in your head you [Am]know[G]
