[Intro]
A Bm7 F#m7 E
DM7 A Bm7
 
 
[Verse 1]
A                    Bm7
I been up and down the rain washed boulevard
F#m7                          E
  World turning as the days just fall apart
DM7                     C#m7             Bm7
  The air heavy in my lungs, pain in my heart, my heart
A                 Bm7
So I walk into the MD on 88th
F#m7                             E
  And the waiting room is empty but still I wait
DM7            C#m7                   Bm7
  Does anybody know what's wrong with me? Cause you see
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
          E                   F#m7
These days I can't help but feel paralyzed
D                           A
Wake up in the morning I'm slow to rise
E                 F#m7
I need somebody to empathize
   D               A
And try to help me understand
 
 
[Chorus]
A                             Bm7    F#m7
It won't be like this forever
            E               D        A    Bm7
Gotta find a way to make it better
                         A        Bm7  F#m7
No it won't be like this forever
        E                D           A
Gotta put the pieces back togethеr
 
     Bm
Oh- ohh, yeah, yeah, yeah
        E
Yeah, yeah

F#m7                          E
  World turning as the days just fall apart
D                    A             Bm
  The air heavy in my lungs, pain in my heart, my heart
