Today is not the day,

To get it done or not to get it done,

Today I heard you say,
A F
Maybe it's okay everything looks grey.
Chorus

Hold on to your armrest,
(G)
Don't be alarmed I'm going to do my best,
Cadd9
Cause it's a long haul, and I'm in this,
(Cadd9) D Cadd9
And once in a while I exceed the posted limits.
Instrumental G, Cadd9
verse 2
Did you hear? Was there a cheer?,
Did it still make a sound though I was not around?,
Despite the tears we made it here,
But maybe that's the fear, did it seem insincere?
Chorus (2x)
Instrumental G, Cadd9

Cadd9 D F G
You do your best to deal with everything life throws,
Cadd9 D F G
But diving in blind head first's a great way to break your nose,
Cadd9 D F G
Everybody says that everybody knows,

Knowing won't amount to much when pushing comes to blows.
