When you've [B] fallen
[G] awake [Bm] [A] and you take stock of [G] the new [E] day
[Bm] [A] And you hear [G] your voice [Bm] croak [A] as you choke [D] on what you [G] need to [E] say

Well don't you fret, [G] don't you fear, [D] I will give you good [E]

And the [G] symphony [D] sounds on [A] the ground but you want to [G] do a [E] rest
[C]
Well don't you squeal [G] as the eel [D] grinds you under the [A]
[E] [A] wheels
Life's a long song, [G]
