Bm D

I could win the lottery tomorrow

Em G A

And still wanna win on a ticket the next week

Bm D

There's always gonna be somethin' better

Em G A

'Cause the top is never high enough to reach

There's always gonna be more money, more fame

More chances you can take

You forget what you could lose

G A

When you only see what you can gain

[CHORUS]

Even when the sun is shinin'

We just see the shadow

We wanna win the war so bad

We don't care about the battle

Once you feel the fire

It feels like nothing holds a candle

And even if we had a house up on a hill

I bet we'd want a castle

Mm-mm yeah

Em G A

We're too blind to see we're right where we need to be

We're never satisfied with livin' in the moment

Em G A

We're too anxious to let it happen naturally

There's always gonna be more money, more fame

More chances you can take

You forget what you could lose

When you only see what you can gain

[CHORUS]

Even when the sun is shinin'

We just see the shadow

We wanna win the war so bad

We don't care about the battle

Once you feel the fire

It feels like nothing holds a candle

And even if we had a house up on a hill

I bet we'd want a castle

Yeah, yeah, yeah

We don't care about the battle

Once you feel the fire

It feels like nothing holds a candle
