[Verse 1]
Dm C
I found I was standing on the dock on the Fourth of July
Gm
I couldn't find my footing
Dm C
Didn't know where I was that night
Bb F/C
You walk away wondering if everything will be alright
C
After some time
[Verse 2]
Dm
I fell asleep too soon
C
Didn't know I was drowning in place
Gm Dm C
I missed all the ooh's and the aah's and the choices I made
Bb F/C
I was chasing after something and I knew that it wasn't real
C
It wasn't right
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb F/C
Cause all the while I thought I was ahead
C
I was behind
Dm C
I lost the freedom that I had
Bb
That night
[Chorus]
F C/E
But you and I can get this right
Dm C F C/E
If on the other side, it's impossible to get it right
Dm C
Here in this life
[Verse 3]
Gm Dm C
And if you find that you are still alone when you think you're alright
Gm Dm C
You're better off standing on your knees to understand why
Bb F/C
Yeah, maybe holding onto something there that isn't real
C
It isn't right
Bb
It will drag you down
Bb
It's your only chance
F/C C
It will take your life
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb
I stood above the sea
F/C C
I took the cup for me to drink
Dm
I was afraid
C Bb
I was turning water into wine
[Chorus]
F C/E
But you and I can get this right
Dm C F C/E
If on the other side, it's impossible to get it right
Dm C
Here in this life
F C/E
And every now and then
Dm C
It starts to make some sort of sense
F C/E
It's impossible to get it right
Dm C
All of the time
[Bridge]
Gm Dm C
Gm Dm C
Gm Bb
But I read it all wrong
Dm C
I was still in the light
Gm Bb
I was right all along
Dm C
When they punctured his side
Gm Bb
But I read it all wrong
Dm C
I was still in the light
Gm Bb
I was right all along
Dm C
When they punctured his side made me right
[Chorus]
F C/E
But you and I can get this right
Dm C F C/E
If on the other side, it's impossible to get it right
Dm C
Here in this life
F C/E
And every now and then
Dm C
It starts to make some sort of sense
F C/E
It's impossible to get it right
Dm C
All of the time
[Outro]
F C/E
It's impossible to get it right
Dm C
All of the time.
F C/E
It's impossible to get it right
Dm C
All of the time.
F C/E
It's impossible to get it right
Dm C
All of the time.
F
It's impossible
