I’m [E7]wishin on a Sunday afternoon for a simple way to take away the pain.
As I [A7]memorize the line and all the words that I find to describe my dreams fading away.
And I’ll [E7]never know another way to share my thoughts today but oh God I’ll try.
But while I [A7]live and I breathe and I work and I slave and I hope and I pray for no more tears to cry.

[C#dim]Daddy, daddy, daddy, it’s just a[C]nother heavy price to pay
{start_of_chorus}
[E]If only [C]I could simpli[A]fy.
[E]If only [C]I could run a[A]way.
[E]If only [C]I could justi[A]fy.
[E][C]How I live to[A]day.
{end_of_chorus}
I was sittin should have been standin on the corner of the river that was busy like a city street.
when the memories in my head came flooding into my brain like the ocean washing over my feet.
I respectively submitted all the crazy little details that I thought were so important to me.
But then the water was rising the tide started turning and then I was swept out to sea.
