Cmaj7 Dm
I been here and I know how it is
Cmaj7 Dm
I been living it alone for all these years,
Cmaj7 Dm
isolated, we hold in our tears

and we try to get by and we strive,

but we’re barely alive

Cmaj7 Dm
Take your time as you learn how to deal.

and we try to get by and we strive,
F Dm Dm
but we’re barely alive.

Who can tell how long we’ll feel this pain?

But we try to get by And we strive,
F Dm Dm
but we’re barely alive.
