G    
G    C     Am    Em D x 3

G               C                 Am
  Uh, it was a long long crucial winter,
             Em   D
  for us to carry on,
G            C        Am
  it was a long long brutal summer,
         Em    D
  for a fever won

              C                    D
  When every beat on your drum is wasted
             C                         D
  and every song that you sing is too late
             C            Bm
  and every word is a hesitation,
            G
  feel no shame

                   C                           Am       Em    D       
  For you have achieved more than you have forsaken,      oh yeah
G             C                          Am          Em        D
  and you believed that it took you to glaces,         that's said

  
              C                    D
  When every beat on your drum is wasted
             C                         D
  and every song that you sing is too late
             C            Bm
  and every word is a hesitation,
              Em
  you did it great
       G      C    Am 
  uuh uh  ah aah   ah    you did it great   

G      C      Am      Em D x 2

         C                    D
  Every beat on your drum is wasted
             C                         D
  and every song that you sing is too late

G        C                    Am     Em    D
  Every beat on your drum is wasted,  no shame

G      C      Am      Em D x 4   (solo)

         G                    C
  Every beat on your drum is wasted          
             Am                          Em D   
  and every song that you sing is the same   
             G             C
  and every word is a hesitation,
           Am                Em D
  oh, you did it again and again

Repeat one more time, and then the song ends after five more chords.
