Intro: A
Verse:
A
Here, in a familiar place
D
We've got our heads down
And we pretend its cause the night
A
Is dark, and running out of space
D
For us to run around
But it's a dead end and money's tight
Pre-Chorus
E D A
And its been a long time of this
E D
Something has got to give
[Refrão]A
Everyone here is ready to go
A
It's been a hard year with nothing to show
Bm E
From down this road, it's only on we go, on we go
A
Everyone here is ready to go
A
It's been a hard year and I only know
Bm E
From down this low, it's only up we go, up we go
Break: A
Verse:
Let's get on another flight
Maybe set out to sea
Kick it up and shake our fist at it
Cause death, is harder to come by
Than it is to breathe
When you gotta make or break for it
Cause its been a long time of this
Something has got to give
Chorus:
Everyone here is ready to go
It's been a hard year with nothing to show
From down this road, it's only on we go, on we go
Everyone here is ready to go
It's been a hard year and I only know
From down this low, it's only up we go, up we go
A
Nothing gives easy
A
Easy gives nothing
D E
I'm just trying to keep income coming in
A
Dawn is bound to break
A
When the night is done
D E
Always darker days, before brighter ones
Chorus
