Verse 1:
C         Am7
 All that I want
          Em
Is to wake up fine

Tell me that I'm alright
             C
That I ain't gonna die
         Am7
All that I want
            Em
Is a hole in the ground

You can tell me when it's alright

For me to come out

 Walking around

With my little rain cloud

Hanging over my head

And it ain't coming down
        Am7
Where do I go?
            Em
Gimme some sort of sign
            Dadd11
You hit me with a lightning
            N.C
Maybe I'll come alive

And I gotta hit the rock bottom
