CAPO: 2nd Fret 


Intro: Am 

                                         G 
The rain's too hard, the streams are too high 
         Am                     G 
Too many people, barely getting by 
                 F                      G 
Some haven't yet paid for last winter's heat 
              Am           G          Am 
Labour Day is done and the ends don't meet 



Wise men say temperature's rising 
                  G           Am 
And there's more water in the air 

It comes down with a vengeance 
                G      Am 
Which no memory can compare 


Chorus: 
       C      G    Am 
We are low in expectations 
             F             G     Am 
But a body's belt can only go so tight 

'Til it interferes with the circulation 
        G                   F 
And you will, with all your might 
          G             Am 
Dawn into day, day into night 


                                    G 
The sun's too bright, the light too white 
          Am               G 
Some days I can't sleep at night 
                 F                   G 
Changes come too fast and leaves you slow 
       Am       G      Am 
Reason overcome by the show 



So we don't talk about the weather 
         G           Am 
Quite as often as we did 

Conversations go to children 
       G                   F 
Voices low, our fears well hid 
         G                              Am 
We don't talk about the weather like we did 


Chorus: 
      C      G    Am 
Being low in expectations 
             F             G     Am 
But a body's belt can only go so tight 

'Til it interferes with the circulation 
        G                  F 
And you will, and all your might 
          G             Am 
Dawn into day, day into night 


             F         G        Am 
We build our hopes up along the way 
         G                 Am 
Day into night, night into day 
             F         G        Am 
We build our hopes up along the way 
         G                 Am 
Day into night, night into day 
         G                 Am 
Day into night, night into day
