[Verse 1]
       F#m
Listen here, tell me dear
          D              A
What have you now got to fear?
E
Took you long to realise
E
Take it one day at a time
            F#m
You've been wasting the minutes
       D             A
In the hours of your days
      E
Look around and you'll find
           F#m
That it's just another way


[Chorus]
D                                  A
To kill some time for what you're worth
D                                  E
'Cause you don't have long on this earth
               F#m
So change your mind one more time
        D                 A
Then it makes no sense at all
            E                          D       E        F#m
Just make a promise that you'll be the best to rise and fall

[Verse]
           F#m
Could there be more to see
         D                A
In this world but you and me?
           E
There's no time in the day
         E
To even think we could betray
        F#m
What we know, what we think
       D              A
As our limbs begin to sink
             E
Has time not taught us anything
    F#m
(We can't remember everything)


[Chorus]
D                           A
But there's something on my mind
D                      E
That I need to leave behind
            F#m                      D               A
So tear the page, hit erase till the day you made me call
       E                          D       E        F#m
Make a promise that you'll be the best to rise and fall

[Verse]
     F#m                     D             A
Justify all the lies that we use to get us by
      E
Do we ever really change?
      E
Do we always stay the same?
        F#m                       D            A
We just take some suggestions, we follow the directions
    E
The fact is plain to see
            F#m
That you're just the same as me


[Chorus]
    D                A
But one thing is for sure
            D              E
When you're standing at my door
         F#m
Play the game, lose the name
        D            A
'Cause eventually we crawl
       E                          D       E        F#m
Make a promise that you'll be the best to rise and fall
