Intro
       C
It's a long way up from rock bottom

There's been times I felt I could fall further

I have loved and lost and feared and prayed
            Am  G      C    C/E F C
But now the day bursts wild and o-pen
        
I have cried tears at my brother's grave
       
I have shaken hands with my wife's surgeon

I spent weeks inside the darkest cage
            Am  G      C    C/E F C
But now the day bursts wild and o-pen
          F       C               F      G
There's a time to cry, there's a time to fall
          F        C                   F      G
There's a time for holding on but then let it go
          F       C          F       C
There's a time to run to the arms of hope
        Am  G      C    C/E N.C.
And the day bursts wild and open

Verse 1
Am      Asus2
  I was raised by the church
Am                 Asus2
  Quiet boy, still far from fizzlin'
   Am                             Asus2
Not the pop star they say they prefer
Am                  Asus2
  Kept quiet, but I came to be heard
F                   Am7                 F
Been a long time up top, but I ain't complacent
          Am7               F
If I look down, I can see replacements
           Am7                     F
Late-night drive and my heartbeat racing
           G
Gotta make dreams and chase 'em

Am          Asus2              Am                Asus2           Am      Asus2
  Taking my fair share of that ridicule, but the words are not applicable
               Am                  Asus2                  F
Gotta look formidable, me and that guy are in a different place
    Am7                        F
Undefeated but that's tempting fate
            Am7                  F
Two of them tried but I won both cases
          Am7                       F
Won't get back all the time they've wasted
        G
I'm not losing sleep

Am                 Asus2
In this world there's no relaxing
Am                     Asus2
  I've been here since migraine skankin'
Am                   Asus2
Never been cool, but never been a has been
  Am                        Asus2
I kept on your couch if you knew me back then
F                         Am7       
  Don't tell 'em bout the walls you're trapped in
F                 Am7
  Gotta keep this up Usain pace
F
Don't tell me have I got this break
  N.C.
I built my own brick through constant playing

Am              Asus2
  SB died, couldn't stop this pain
Am              Asus2
  I look at the dots in space
Am                 Asus2
  I wonder if he's proud
   Am                          N.C.
Or thinks that his best friend lost his way
F                       Am7
Keep it together for my daughters
           F
Gotta come natural
              Am7
I don't wanna force it
            F                 Am7
If it's not factual, don't support it
           F                   G
Every year gotta re-swim these waters


Hook
       Am
Draw a line
        
For the sake of all your family and friends

Draw a line
   
So history doesn't happen again
       Am
Draw a line
                         G            Am
For the day to start the night has to end

Draw a line
                 G
For all of these goals


Verse 2
Am                Asus2
  I'm too high to fly this plane
Am              Asus2
  Too fucked to drive this range
  Am                 Asus2               Am            
Can't remember the last time I was on my own without Kev
     Am7
It's kind of strange 
F                       Am7
Not been the same since nineteen
       F               Am7
Not to push blind on a swing
               F
I gotta wear disguises

           Am7               G
I'm up for trading lives sometimes
              Am
And it may surprise 'em
             Asus2           Am
Every stadium, I've played it
                  Asus2     
But I would still do it for free
Am
Gotta keep standards
Asus2                 Am
Top of the top of the tree
                Asus2         
Press still got problems with me
F                  Am7
  When school starts I might peace out
F                  Am7
  Till then I keep chasing the dream
 F                  Am7
I could end it, but I don't wanna reach out
F                 G
  'Cause he means nothing to me

      Am                Asus2
Don't worry about what I make
Am                               Asus2
  Don't trip them up to win this race
            Am                Asus2
When your career's in a risky place
           Am                  Asus2
Everything seems like a big mistake
          Am                  Asus2
I'm still looking for shit to say
  F                                  Am7
Deluding myself that they'll still relate
  F                  Am7
Depression I keep at bay
  F                     Am7
Tomorrow is a different day

N.C.                  Am
Me and that guy don't speak no more
  Am           Asus2    Am
I know why but he's not sure
               Asus2
So what is the reason for
   Am                    Asus2         Am          
My heart's been broke so many times by loved ones
                  Asus2
That I don't even feel like talking
F    Am7             F
  So heed that warning
              Am7
Circuit keeps getting smaller
F                           Am7       F                      G
  All I need is Chez and my daughters and a few friends that help me

Hook
       Am
Draw a line
        
For the sake of two little girls and their time 
Am
Draw a line
 
But allow yourself some moments to cry
       
Draw a line

And leave the past that hurt you behind
       Am
Draw a line
                 G
For all of these goals
       Am
Draw a line

Be grateful that you think that you've been

Draw a line

Recognize the part that happens between

Draw a line
     F                                    G
This future here, yeah, there's yet to be seen
       Am
Draw a line (Draw a line, draw a line)
