Gray morning sky splits through the shade 
Another day comes, more time to make 
Kids growing up, cat getting fatter 
Lying here with you, nothing else matters 
 
       A  Asus4 A     A5           Asus4 A 
Work hard, keep your eyes on the prize 
     A5  A  Asus4  A    A5 
Wake up, as soon as you open your eyes 
        A Asus4 A    A5     Asus4 A 
Every muscle in your body hurts 
       A  Asus4 A    A5     Asus4  A 
Stop praying for things to get better 
   A  Asus4 A5            A 
Pray they don't get worse 
 
               G     D          A 
Another thin line, I don dare cross 
               G     D          A 
Another home game, another close loss 
                G    D         A 
Yeah, we get by, we get by 
A 
Baby, we get by

Work week time to move on 
     A5  A  Asus4  A    A5 
Another heartache, another dream gone 
A  Asus4 A     A5           Asus4 A 
A cold day, there ain no sun

No use complaining, gotta get the job done

Well it ain't us, up on the stocks 
         D                C       G 
I stand below, you sit pretty on top 
         D        C            G 
Well, how long before it's my turn? 
         D        C          G 
The bottom line is souls do burn 
C          G     C       G 
Souls do burn, souls do burn 
            C  G  A 
Souls do burn

Someone gets sick, family closes ranks 
A  Asus4 A     A5           Asus4 A 
Before you know it, Christmas is here 
     A5  A  Asus4  A    A5 
Wake up and it a new year 
  
 
               G     D          A 
Another thin line, I don dare cross 
               G     D          A 
Another home game, another close loss 
                G    D         A 
Yeah, we get by, we get by
