[Intro]

      
      


[Verse 1]

            
Now and then, 


I pace my plac

e
             
I can't retrac

          
e how I got he

re
             
I cheat the li

    
ght, to check 

my face
             
It's slightly 

             
harder than la

st year


[Chorus]

           
And all at onc

         
e it gets hard

 to take
            
It gets hard t

             
o fake what I 


won't be
            
Cause one of t

             
hese days I'll

   
 be born and r

aised
            
And it's such 

             
a waste to gro

     
w up lonely


[Instrumental]

    


[Harmonica solo]

      


[Verse 2]

             
I still have d

      
reams, they're

 not the same
             
They don't fly

              
 as high as th

   
ey used to
             
I saw my frien

  
d, he's in my 

head
             
And he said, "

              
You don't reme

         
mber me, do yo

u?"


[Chorus]

           
Then all at on

           
ce it gets har

d to take
            
It gets hard t

             
o fake what I 


won't be
            
Cause one of t

             
hese days I'll

   
 be born and r

aised
            
And it's such 

             
a waste to gro

            
w up lonely


[Instrumental]

    
    
    
 


[Verse 3]

             
I still got ti

   
me, I still go

t faith
             
I call on both

          
 of my brother

s
           
I got a mom, I

 got a dad
             
But they do no

            
t have each ot

her


[Chorus]

           
So line on up,


 and take your

 place
            
And show your 

           
face to the mo

rning
            
Cause one of t

             
hese days you'

      
ll be born and

 raised
            
And it all com

             
es on without 


warning
