Introduction:
Dm Bb F C
Dm Bb
When I was young my father would say
F C
Time bends its back for no one my son
Dm Bb
And bright skies they only fool a man who are blind
F C
So look through the smile and see what's behind
Dm Bb
Now that you left, all my dreams - drifted away
F C
I try to move past but life's not the same
Bb
If I only knew then
C
the things I know now
Dm
I'd take it all back
Bb
and turn it around
F C Dm
Cause I have so much to say and more to give today
Bb
this is no life to live (you gotta give)
F C Dm
Cause I have so much to say and more to give today
Bb
this is no life to live (you gotta give)
F C Bb
Must be a better way - a better way

Dm Bb
Now I sit here in a cage all my own
F C
It's a new life, it's a brand new home
Dm Bb
It's made out of steel, it's built out of fear
It's closed up to you and it's part of the deal
Bb
If I only knew then
C
the things I know now
Dm
I'd take it all back
Bb
and turn it around
F C Dm
Cause I have so much to say and more to give today
Bb
this is no life to live (you gotta give)
F C Dm
Cause I have so much to say and more to give today
Bb
this is no life to live (you gotta give)
F C Bb
Must be a better way - a better way
