Am 
Would?ve been nice to have had some kind of warning 
Em 
Something to prepare me for dark days like this 
Dm 
Would?ve been in the church early every Sunday morning 
Em 
Now I just can?t get off my knee 

Am 
So the music?s gone and the colors fading 
Em 
Winter came to steal and bankrupt every single tree 
Dm 
Didn?t realize it was always there until it was taken 
Em 
Guess that?s the trouble about me 


Am 
I close my eyes so I get carried away 
Em 
Lift all my hands praying that someone will take me 
Dm 
Something?s been up with me lately 
Em 
Keep dreaming ?bout, dreaming ?bout helicopters and planes 

Am 
I spend my nights looking right up at the sky 
Em 
I came right out so so they come and see me 
Dm 
Something?s been up with me lately 
Em 
Keep dreaming ?bout, dreaming ?bout helicopters and planes 


Am 
Weight of nation on my shoulder 
Em 
Keeping my feet on the ground 
Dm 
And the cold was slowly getting colder 
Em 
This room feels like a lost and found 

Am 
Shadows grow and paint me pictures 
Em 
Introduce me to a brand new kind of love 
Dm 
I know I should have never trusted any wizard 
Em 
They promise me a brand new home 


Am 
I close my eyes so I get carried away 
Em 
Lift all my hands praying that someone will take me 
Dm 
Something?s been up with me lately 
Em 
Keep dreaming ?bout, dreaming ?bout helicopters and planes 

Am 
I spend my nights looking right up at the sky 
Em 
I came right out so so they come and see me 
Dm 
Something?s been up with me lately 
Em 
Keep dreaming ?bout, dreaming ?bout helicopters and planes 


Am 
I live life for the moment 
My life ain?t perfect in the morning 
Em 
As a child I felt hopeless 
Could the pain goes deeper than the ocean 
Dm 
I looked to the sky for a potion 
That could wash away the pain of a soldier 
Em 
That try to put chain in proportion 
But this dark great days get colder 
Am 
And this dark great days ain?t over 
So I prayed but I can?t stay sober 
Em 
And I can?t blame no one 
But my heart beats no love 
Dm 
And I can?t sleep sometimes 
Every time I dream about the sunshine and take off 
Em 
I wake up same place stop just case enough 
Go! 


Am 
I close my eyes so I get carried away 
Em 
Lift all my hands praying that someone will take me
