Chord names sit directly above the word where you change.
A Monday morning runs to Sunday night Screaming slow me down before the new year dies Won't take much to kill a lovin' smile And every mother with a baby cryin in her arms sings G A Give me help, give me strength G Give a soul a night of fearless sleep Give me love, give me peace C E Don't you know these days you pay for everything A Got high hopes, got high hopes Got high hopes, got high hopes Comin' from the city, comin' from the wild I see a breathless army breakin' like a cloud They're gonna smother love, they're gonna shoot your hopes Before the meek inherit, they'll learn to hate themselves G A Give me help, give me strength G Give a soul a night of fearless sleep Give me love, give me peace C E Don't you know these days you pay for everything A Got high hopes, got high hopes Got high hopes, got high hopes Got high hopes, got high hopes Got high hopes, got high hopes So tell me someone, now, what's the price I wanna buy some time and maybe live my life I wanna have a wife I wanna have some kids I want to look in their eyes and know they stand a chance G A Give me help, give me strength G Give a soul a night of fearless sleep Give me love, give me peace C E Don't you know these days you pay for everything A Got high hopes Got high hopes Got high hopes Got high hopes
