G D C   
  
G D C  
times are far between, and few I bet  
G D C  
we can look upon our lives without regret   
  
D  
of all the things I have done  
C G  
you think I'm proud of everyone without exception?   
  
  
G D C  
'til you make your peace with yesterday  
  
G D   
you'll never build a future  
C  
I swear by what I say   
  
D  
whatever penance you'll do  
decide what it's worth to you  
C  
and then respect it  
D  
however long it will take  
to weather your mistakes  
C  
why not accept it?   
  
Am Em C  
my hands, for now, are tied  
Am Em  
I'm a body frozen  
C  
I'm a will that's paralyzed   
  
G D  
when will you ever set aside  
C  
your pain and misery?   
G   
no matter how I beg  
D C  
no matter how I wish or plead   
  
D  
you'll never be more than alive  
you'll never do more than survive  
C  
until you expect it  
D  
do you want to build a world with our lives?   
you better soon decide  
C  
or you can forget it.   
  
Am Em C  
my hands, for now, are tied  
Am  
I'm a body frozen  
Em C  
I'm a will that's paralyzed  
Am Em   
'til you drop that heavy baggage  
C  
you're dragging behind  
Am Em  
there won't be room for us  
C  
to both go this ride  
  
G D C
