Capo β™ͺ fret 1

it’s a [C]long way up from rock bottom..

there’s been [C]times i felt

i could fall further

i have [C]loved and lost

and feared and prayed

but now the [Am]day[G] bursts[C] wild[Em] and[F] o..p[C]en..

i have [C]cried tears at my brother’s grave..

i have [C]shaken hands

with my wife’s surgeon

i spent [C]weeks inside the darkest cage..

but now the [Am]day[G] bursts[C] wild[Em] and[F] o..[C]pen..

there’s a [Em]time to [F]cry,

there’s a [C]time to f[G]old

there’s a [Em]time for [F]holdin’ on

and to [C]let it g[G]o

there’s a [Em]time to [F]run

to the [C]arms of h[G]opΠ΅

and the [Am]day[G] bursts[C] wild[Em] and[F] o..pen[Am]..

[Am] i was raised by thΠ΅ church

choir boy, still far from fizzlin'

[Am]not the pop star they say they prefer

kept quiet, but i came to be heard

[F]been a long time up top,

but i ain’t complacent

if i look down, i can see re[F]placements

late-night drive and my heartbeat racing

gotta make[G/B] dreams and chase ’em

[Am] taken my fair share of that ridicule

but the words are not ap[Am]plicable

catalogue formidable

me and that guy are in a different [F]place

undefeated but that’s tempting fate

two of them tried it, i won both [F]cases

won’t get back all the time they’ve wasted

i am not[G/B] losing sleep

[Am] in this world, there’s no relaxin'

i’ve been here since migraine skankin'

[Am]never been cool, but never been a has been

i kip on your couch

if you knew me back then

[F] don’t ell ’em bout the walls

you’re trapped in

gotta keep this usain pace

[F]don’t ask me how i got this break

i built my own bricks

through[G/B] constant playin'

[Am] sb died, couldn’t stop this pain

i look at the dots in space

[Am] i wonder if he’s proud

or thinks that his best friend

lost his way

[F]keep it together for my daughters,

gotta come natural

i don’t wanna force it

if it’s not [F]factual, don’t support it

every year, gotta re swim these[G/B] waters

Chorus

draw a [F]line, for the sake

of all your family [G]and friends..

draw a [Am]line,

so history doesn’t happen [C]again..

draw a [F]line, for the day to start,

the [G]night has to end..

draw a [Am]line, for all of these g[C]hosts..

[Am] i’m too high to fly this plane

too fucked to drive this range

[Am]can’t remember the last time

i was on my own without kev

it’s kinda strange

[F]not been the same since nineteen

now to push ly on a swing,

i gotta wear dis[F]guises

i’m up for trading life sometimes,

and that may su[G/B]rprise ’em

[Am] every stadium, i played it,

but i would still do it for free

[Am]gotta keep standards,

top of the top of the tree

press still got problems with me

[F] when school starts, i might peace out

till then i keep chasin’ the dream

[F]i could end it,

but i don’t wanna reach out

cause he means[G/B] nothin’ to me

don’t [Am]worry about what i make

don’t trip them up to win this race

when your ca[Am]reer’s in a risky place

everything seems like a big mistake

i’m still [F]lookin’ for shit to say

deludin’ myself that they still relate

de[F]pression i keep at bay,

tomorrow’s a different day

[G/B] me and that guy don’t [Am]speak, no more

i know why, but he’s not sure

so what is the reason for?

my [Am]heart’s been broke

so many times by loved ones

that i don’t even feel like talkin'

[F] so heed that warning

circle keeps gettin’ smaller

[F] all i need is chez and my daughters

and a few friends to[G/B] help me

Chorus

draw a [F]line, for the sake

of your little [G]girls and their time..

draw a [Am]line, but allow yourself

some [C]moments to cry..

draw a [F]line, and leave the past

that [G]hurt you behind..

draw a [Am]line, for all of these g[C]hosts..

draw a [F]line, be grateful

that you’ve [Am]been where you’ve been..

draw a [G]line, and recognize the path

that [C]happened between..

draw a [F]line, there’s future here

that’s [G]yet to be seen..

draw a [Am]line

(draw a line, draw a line, draw a line)

(draw a line, draw a line, draw a line, draw a line)

[C] and the day bursts wild and o..pen..
