Lyrics:
verse 1
B A'
Somedays I look
B A' G Em
I look at you with eyes that shine
B A'
Somedays I don't
B A' G Em
I don't believe that you are mine
C Em
It's no good asking me what time of day it is
C Em
Who won the match or scored the goal
B A'
Somedays I look
B A' G Em
Somedays I look into your soul
verse 2
Sometimes I laugh
I laugh to think how young we were
Sometimes it's hard
It's hard to know which way to turn
Don't ask me where I found that picture on the wall
How much it cost or what it's worth
Sometimes I laugh
I laugh to think how young we were
Chours:
D A B F#m
We don't need anybody else
G A D
To tell us what is real
A B F#m
Inside each one of us is love
G A D
And we know how it feels
verse 3
Somedays I cry
I cry for those who live in fear
Somedays I don't
I don't remember why I'm here
No use reminding me, it's just the way it is
Who ran the race or came in first
Somedays I cry
I cry for those who fear the worst
Solo
(repeat chorus)
(repeat verse)
(repeat Solo)
