Rilo Kiley - A Better Son Daughter Chords

CAPO ON 4

C                             F             C
Sometimes in the morning i am petrified and can't move
F                C       G
Awake but cannot open my eyes
        C                             F                    C
And the weight is crushing down on my lungs i know i can't breath
    F                 C            G
And hope someone will help me this time
     C                          F          C
Your mother's still calling you insane and high
F             C              G
Swearing it's different this time
        C                          F           C
And you tell her to give in to the demons that possess her
         F        C           G
And that god ever blessed her insides
         C                          F         C
Then you hang up the phone and feel badly for upsetting things
    F               C            G
And crawl back into bed to dream of a time
          C                             F                 C
When your heart was open wide and you loved things just because
         F            C      G
Like the sick and the dying

    C                             F               C
And sometimes when you're on you're really f**king on
         F                 C              G
And your friends they sing along and they love you
        C                            F                  C
But the lows are so extreme that the good seems f**king cheap
       F              C            G
And it teases you for weeks in its absense
           C                  
But you'll fight and you'll make it through
       F              C
You'll fake it if you have to
           F           C           G
And you'll show up for work with a smile
                 C
And you'll be be better you'll be smarter
           F               C
More grown up and a better daughter
   F         C         G
Or son and a real good friend
              C
And you'll be awake and you'll be alert
          F                  C
You'll be positive though it hurts
           F          C              G
And you'll laugh and embrace all your friends
                C
And you'll be a real good listener
          F                C
You'll be honest you'll be brave
          F                  C
You'll be handsome you'll be beautiful
          G
You'll be happy


same chords persist throughout the solo

     C
Your ship may be coming in
       F                   C
You're weak but not giving in
       F             C            G 
To the cries and the wails of the valley below
     C
Your ship may be coming in
       F                   C
You're weak but not giving in
           F                  C            G
And you'll fight it you'll go out fighting all of them
