Uh, it was a long long crucial winter,

Em D

for us to carry on,

it was a long long brutal summer,

for a fever won

and every word is a hesitation,

feel no shame

C Am Em D

For you have achieved more than you have forsaken, oh yeah

G C Am Em D

and you believed that it took you to glaces, that's said

C D

When every beat on your drum is wasted

C D

and every song that you sing is too late

C Bm

and every word is a hesitation,

you did it great

G C Am

uuh uh ah aah ah you did it great

G C Am Em D
