Capo 1st fret.


Intro: G | D

G 
I feel this burden
D
Upon my shoulders
Em
And it keeps on
C
Dragging me down
G              D
And as I drift, through this endless ocean
Em                   C
I keep hoping I'll be found before I drown

G
And I know on some days
D                       Em
Nothing seems to go your way
                   C
But you're holding on

G                    D
When I pass you on an empty street
Em                     C
You look at me, but our eyes don't meet
G                          D
And when I see your picture on my wall
Em                       C
I catch myself, trying to forget it all

And I know on some days, nothing seems to go your way
But you're holding on
And I know on some days, nothing seems to go my way
But I'm holding on

C            D             G
When you say, that you can't see
G           C
Open up your eyes, look at me
C            D          G
When you say, that you're sorry
G          C                  G
Take a look inside, what do you feel 

G  D


This chord pattern continues throughout :)



Only a whisper, you left behind
A silent echo of a, silent goodbye
And all your footprints that once remain
Are slowly starting to get washed away

And I know on some days, nothing seems to go your way
But you're holding on
And I know on some days, nothing seems to go my way
But I'm holding on

And everything you do
And everything you say
And every place you go
And everyone you meet
And everyone you know
And everything you have
And everything you want

Leads you in the wrong direction
When you're trying to find some action
Trying to make a difference
But nobody sees it
Everyone is too obsessed with what they own

And I know on some days, nothing seems to go your way
But you're holding on
And I know on some days, nothing seems to go my way
But I'm holding on

And I know on some days, nothing seems to go your way
But you're holding on
And I know on some days, nothing seems to go my way

But I'm holding on
