Intro : Dm Bb 4x 
 
 
verse 1 : 
 
          Dm 
I wake up every morning bright and early 
          Bb 
Roll out of bed but I'm never quite alone 
          Dm 
Tension is pulling me in all directions 
          Bb 
And these problems use me as a rope 
 
          Dm 
Sometimes the pressure will just drive you crazy 
          Bb 
At any time I could explode 
          Dm 
I need some peace of mind, it's got me tired 
          Bb 
Don't wanna lose it, but I'm turning down that road 
 
 
 
Dm       F                  C                 Gm 
I need a moment 'cause I've spread myself too thin 
Bb            F             A 
We all need a moment in our life 
Dm               F 
Work's hard, the day's too long 
    C                    Gm 
And that's just where it begins 
Bb          F               A 
Tension has had us all this time 
 
verse 2 : 
 
          Dm 
I sit in traffic every single morning 
          Bb 
Just as I arrive, I'm slaving to the grind 
          Dm 
Making the money, so I feed my family 
          Bb 
But I can't raise them, 'cause I ain't got the time 
 
          Dm 
I got no free days on my busy schedule 
          Bb 
I turn the page and it's the same 
          Dm 
Don't like my situation, you don't either 
          Bb 
Don't wanna look back scared, I will get away 
 
 
 
Dm       F                  C                 Gm 
I need a moment 'cause I've spread myself too thin 
Bb            F             A 
We all need a moment in our life 
Dm               F 
Work's hard, the day's too long 
    C                    Gm 
And that's just where it begins

F                 C 
But every now and then 
            Gm         Bb 
I drive alone and over all 
           F                         Dm    C Bb 
Hot summer day, a gentle breeze that feels alright 
        F                        C            Gm 
All alone, and I can't feel no pain, only strain 
          Bb                F                      Dm    C Bb 
Enjoy the sights, I feel alive, relaxing here just feels alright
