Intro: Em 

Em 
She wakes up some days life is cruel 
            B 
She's on a chain gang sittin' in a typing pool 
         C         D            Em 
And Her brain feels all dragged down 

     Em 
The gossip flies, the coffee's stale 
             B 
She wants to run outside and scream like hell 
         C        D      Em 
'Til it turns Her luck around 

G                     A 
 Doesn't matter how insane it gets 
G                             C           D 
 She's got one dream and Her sights set, She says - 

Em 
I'm just waitin' for it 
A 
I'm just makin' sure that 
C           D           Em 
My heart's steady as a drum 

Em 
Brighter days are dawnin' 
A 
My faith's holding strong, 'n' - 
C        D            Em 
I'll be ready when it comes 

           Em 
He drives around the block a thousand times 
    B 
He can't go home 'til He clears his mind 
        C       D        Em 
And His supper's cold by now 

    Em 
The doctor's words crash through His ears 
         B 
About a treatment plan and a lot of years 
        C       D       Em 
He will live to see somehow 

G                                A 
 He gathers all His friends and family 
G                          C      D 
 He says, wrap Your lovin' arms around Me 

Em 
I know I can do this 
A 
Love will get Me through this, 
C           D          Em 
My heart's steady as a drum 

Em 
Brighter days are dawnin' 
A 
My faith's holding strong, 'n' - 
C           D            Em 
'n' I'll be ready when it comes 

          A 
(when it comes) 
One light shinin' that is brighter than the sun 
          C 
(when it comes) 
Way down deep inside the heart of Everyone 
          A 
(when it comes) 
I reach past My troubles for the strength to carry on 
           B 
(when it comes) 
And find that what I need was right there all along
