  			Intro: A  C#m7  D  Dm 

A           C#m7             D    Dm 
  This is a message and a calling 
A                C#m7           D  Dm 
  So, get up and gather around, everyone. 
A                   C#m7                                  D    Dm 
  I'm withering. dying. trembling from trying. barely crawling. 
A               C#m7 
 What can be done? 
D                 D9 
 What will be done? 

D        A 
 Nobody told me

How heavy this life was gonna be 

(Intro) 

A           C#m7             D    Dm 
 Here stands a silver lined believer. not believing. 
A                C#m7           D  Dm 
 A rosy-eyed dreamer awakening 
A                   C#m7                                  D    Dm 
 Into a moment when hands are not given to the needing 
A               C#m7 
 What will become 
D                 D9 
 Of this needing one? 


E 
 If I can just hold on 
A               C#m7 
 Until the morning dawns 
D                 D9 
 And nothing remains but a better day 

And my song... 
A           C#m7             D    Dm 
Will sing of the weighed down times now behind me. 

And I'll be moving. 

And I'll be grooving. 


A           C#m7             D  Dm 
 But I keep pushing on 

 Everyday's getting heavier and heavier 
A                C#m7           D  Dm 
 Heavier and heavier 
A                   C#m7                                D  Dm 
 Everyday's getting heavier and heavier 
A               C#m7 
 Heavier and heavier
