Capo 7 

Am-G 

Am 
It's gonna get worse before it gets better 
I wrote it down in a love letter 
          G 
Sang it for you 

Am 
I know that love is the only redeemer 
Everything else is just a make believer 
           G  
Everything else 

Am 
How can you say you?ll change when you're gripping the knife 
When you're dressed in forms of a previous life 
          G                
Won?t you lay down your sword 
Your shield and your pride 

Am 
Just ride in the river, crashin? on rock 
Comin? up for air or just floating along 
       G      
We're all shaped like driftwood 

  C                    D    
All you got to do is find some truth and see it through 

Am-G-Am-G 

Am 
Even the words that I learned from my father 
Are shining a light in the face of the darkness 
         G 
Shining a light 

          Am 
I know what I need and I already have it 
You think it's the money I've already spent it 
                   G 
You think it's for glory I?ll only regret it 
The story you sold I already forget it 

         Am 
I'm paying the rent, my head?s above water 
What drove the wheel is the weight we are under 
         G 
Tell me how and why we're not bothered 
How and why 

        Am 
Now some go kicking, some willing lay down 
Most already live with both feet in the ground 
        G 
Some won?t let go. Some won?t leave home 
Some find it easier if they just don't know 
    
     C                           D    
And all we got to do is keep kicking the door until the light shines through 

Am-G-Am-G 

            Am 
It's gonna get worse but its gonna get better 
say it out loud and you'll always remember 
            G  
It's gonna get worse, its gonna get better 

        Am 
It's gonna get worse but its gonna get better 
It's gonna get worse but its gonna get better 
        G 
It's gonna get worse, its gonna get better 
I get worse, I get better 

Am-G-Am-G-Am-G-Am-G
