How

 
E                   
How do you wake up? Every morning 
         E 
How do you stay up? 
                         F# 
Without knowing where you were last night 
        A                    E 
or if he treated you right? 
E 
How can you see straight when you've been turning? 
                               C#m 
How can you hold on? Handle's burning 
 

 
          F#          F 
And can I ask how long you've been sure 
          F#                      A 
And can I ask you, babe, have you felt 
                   E 
Something like this before?

Clearly stuck on rhyming

Start rewriting 
    F#              A       
Just rewind and trust the timing 
              E 
You're giving up that's fine 
E 
I'll take your side 
          F# 
You'll fall asleep 
     A        
Without you tryin 
              C#m 
And are those words you choose 
  A 
Enough to prove 
   C#m                   E   A 
A life that's lived from all sides? 
            C#m                A         F# 
And does a garden grow beneath the snow? 
F# 
And do you know? 
   
How could you? 
 

 
        E 
How do you wake up every morning? 
E 
How do you cry again, without warning? 
             F#                  A 
Turning the pillow over til the linen 
                      E 
Licks the tears from open eyes 
E 
How can you stand tall, no stage or shoulder? 
                                          C#m 
How can you take that fall, over and over? 
 

 
          F#m               F 
And can I ask how long you've been sure? 
           F#m 
And can I ask you, babe 
          D                      E 
Have you felt something like this before?
