So you cannot lift a spirit that has turned to lead 
   G                C               D 
Or shine a light in shadow when the batteries are dead 
              C         G             
Or fly like a bird over all the works of man 
          C 
Or always think of the perfect words 
        G           
But you do the best you can

Nothing seems as easy as it did when you were young 
G              C             D 
Myths may be invincible, but we are only strong 
              C                     G            
Strong like a memory, strong like a willow in the wind 
                 C 
Strong as you'll ever be 
         G             
You will always need to bend 

 
           C        A             D 
And if you feel the weight of the world 
D/F#     G       C 
Put your mind at ease

There are times when being a grown-up gets to be too much

You're just putting in your time

It's never easy to keep all the promises you make 
         C 
No one's gonna get you fired 
         G 
You just give yourself a break
