_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ [Bb] I feel something that [F] _ _ [Eb] _ can't get clear.
[Bb] I don't know [F] what to do, because I'm neck [Eb] deep in fear.
My back feels like it's been holding up the weight.
[F] This house, these three cats, and my [Eb] truck are filled with crap.
_ _ _ With every [F] little bang, every little push, every [Eb] little step I take, I get closer.
A [F] second at a time, using my breath.

And [C] you get it's not [F] about you.
[Eb] It's me, fight me, fight me, fighting me all the time [G] I'm here.

_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ [Gm] And I still _ can't sit [Eb] still or relate.
And then I get so tired.
And I'm laying there awake, wondering what [Gm] she sees.
You wonder, [Eb] what is it you get?
[Cm] And why am I so [F] lucky?
You ain't left me yet.
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ Why am [G] I so lucky?
