Verse 1:
A
Here in a familiar place

We got our heads down

And we pretend it's cause the night is dark

And running out of space
              D
For us to run around
 
But it's a dead end, and money's tight
 
Pre-Chorus:
    C#m         D                 A
And it's been a long time of this

Chorus:
A
Everyone here is ready to go
 
It's been a hard year with nothing to show
     D
From down this road
          E
It's only on we go, on we go
A
Everyone here is ready to go
 
It's been a hard year, and I only know
     D
From down this low
          E
It's only up we go, up we go

Verse 2:
A
Let's get on another flight
                 D
Maybe set out to sea
 
Kick it up and shake a fist at it
      A
Cause death is harder to come by
 
Guitar figure - starts on 'death '.

Than it is to breathe
 
When you gotta make a break for it

And it's been a long time of this

From down this low
          E
It's only up we go, up we go
 
Bridge:
A
Nothing gives easy
              D
Easy gives nothing
                 E
I'm just tryin'a keep
 
Income coming in
A
Dawn is bound to break
 
When the night is done
D             E
Always darker days before brighter ones
 
Guitar figure - starts on 'dawn'.
