[Intro]

[Verse 1]
D A7
The morning comes in fast, at least my dreams are done
D A7
There's somethin' livin' in and weighin' down my lungs
D A7
There's something bitter and it's tyin' up my tongue
D A7
My body's restless but I've got nowhere to run
[Chorus]
D A7
Cold waves, blue haze
D A7
That's what it feels like on the dark days
D A7
Push it down just to get around
D A7
But it's always there, barely at bay
[Verse 2]
D A7
I've got a lover and he loves me very well
D A7
He took my broken heart and brought it back from hell
D A7
And with the slightest glance and movement he can tell
D A7
That I am lost and only he can lift the veil
[Chorus]
D A7
Cold waves, blue haze
D A7
That's what it feels like on the dark days
D A7
Push it down just to get around
D A7
But it's always there, barely at bay
[Instrumental]

| D | A7 |
[Verse 3]
D A7
And in the evenin' when I lay my baby down
D A7
I listen to her breathe, the single sweetest sound
D A7
I pray she'll never lose the tenderness she's found
D A7
And that she'll never know the pain to which I'm bound
[Chorus]
D A7
Cold waves, blue haze
D A7
That's what it feels like on the dark days
D A7
Push it down just to get around
D A7
But it's always there, barely at bay
[Outro]
D A7
Cold waves, blue haze
D A7 D
That's what it feels like on the dark days
