 [INTRO]

  Db
 . 
 [VERSE ONE]
        Db 
 It's a long way up from rock bottom
              Db 
 There's been times I felt I could fall further
  Db 
 I have loved and lost and feared and prayed
              Bbm   Ab      Db    Db/F Gb Db 
 But now the day bursts wild and open

          Db 
 I have cried tears at my brother's grave
  Db 
 I have shaken hands with my wife's surgeon
  Db 
 I spent weeks inside the darkest cage
             Bbm    Ab     Db      Db/F Gb Db
 But now the day bursts wild and open

            Db/F    Gb              Db       Ab
 There's a time to cry, there's a time to fold
             Db/F    Gb                 Db     Ab 
 There's a time for holdin' on and to let it go
              Db/F   Gb          Db      Ab 
 There's a time to run to the arms of hopе
           Bbm    Ab     Db   Db/F
 And the day bursts wild and open
 
 [VERSE TWO]
  Bbm
 I was raised by thе church
   Bbm
 Choir boy, still far from fizzlin'
   Bbm
 Not the pop star they say they prefer
  Bbm
 Kept quiet, but I came to be heard
   Gb 
 Been a long time up top, but I ain't complacent
   Gb 
 If I look down, I can see replacements
  Gb 
 Late night drive and my heartbeat racing
              Ab 
 Gotta make dreams and chase 'em

 Bbm 
 Taken my fair share of that ridicule
  Bbm 
 But the words are not applicable
  Bbm 
 Catalogue formidable
                                     Gb 
 Me and that guy are in a different place
  Gb 
 Undefeated but that's tempting fate
 Gb 
 Two of them tried it, I won both cases
  Gb 
 Won't get back all the time they've wasted
            Ab 
 I am not losing sleep

 Bbm 
 In this world, there's no relaxin'
  Bbm 
 I've been here since migraine skankin'
   Bbm 
 Never been cool, but never been a has been
  Bbm 
 I kip on your couch if you knew me back then
    Gb 
 Don't tell 'em bout the walls you're trapped in
  Gb 
 Gotta keep this Usain pace
    Gb 
 Don't ask me how I got this break
  Gb 
 I built my own bricks through constant playin'

 Bbm 
 SB died, couldn't stop this pain
  Bbm 
 I look at the dots in space
  Bbm 
 I wonder if he's proud
 Bbm 
 Or thinks that his best friend lost his way
   Gb 
 Keep it together for my daughters, gotta come natural
   Gb
 I don't wanna force it
 Gb 
 If it's not factual, don't support it
  Gb                               Ab 
 Every year, gotta re swim these waters

 [CHORUS]
         Gb                             Ab 
 Draw a line, for the sake of all your family and friends
          Bbm                        Db 
 Draw a line, so history doesn't happen again
        Gb                                    Ab 
 Draw a line, for the day to start, the night has to end
         Bbm                       Db 
 Draw a line, for all of these ghosts
 
 [VERSE THREE]
  Bbm 
 I'm too high to fly this plane
  Bbm 
 Too fucked to drive this Range
  Bbm 
 Can't remember the last time I was on my own without Kev
  Bbm 
 It's kinda strange
    Gb
 Not been the same since nineteen
  Gb 
 Now to push Ly on a swing, I gotta wear disguises
   Gb
 I'm up for trading life sometimes, and that may surprise 'em

  Bbm
 Every stadium, I played it, but I would still do it for free
   Bbm  
 Gotta keep standards, top of the top of the tree
   Bbm
 Press still got problems with me
    Gb
 When school starts, I might peace out
   Gb 
 Till then I keep chasin' the dream
    Gb 
 I could end it, but I don't wanna reach out
  Gb                Ab 
 'Cause he means nothin' to me

         Bbm 
 Don't worry about what I make
  Bbm 
 Don't trip them up to win this race
  Bbm 
 When your career's in a risky place
  Bbm 
 Everything seems like a big mistake
            Gb 
 I'm still lookin' for shit to say
  Gb 
 Deludin' myself that they still relate
  Gb 
 Depression I keep at bay, tomorrow's a different day

                          Bbm 
 Me and that guy don't speak, no more
  Bbm 
 I know why, but he's not sure
  Bbm 
 So what is the reason for?
  Bbm 
 My heart's been broke so many times by loved ones
  Bbm 
 That I don't even feel like talkin'
  Gb 
 So heed that warning
  Gb 
 Circle keeps gettin' smaller
  Gb
 All I need is Chez and my daughters
                       Ab 
 And a few friends to help me

 [CHORUS]
         Gb                                   Ab 
 Draw a line, for the sake of your little girls and their time
         Bbm                              Db 
 Draw a line, but allow yourself some moments to cry
         Gb                             Ab
 Draw a line, and leave the past that hurt you behind
         Bbm                        Db 
 Draw a line, for all of these ghosts

         Gb                              Ab
 Draw a line, be grateful that you've been where you've been
         Bbm                                 Db 
 Draw a line, and recognize the path that happened between
         Gb                               Ab 
 Draw a line, there's future here that's yet to be seen
         Bbm 
 Draw a line (Draw a line, draw a line, draw a line)

 (Draw a line, draw a line, draw a line, draw a line)

 And the day bursts wild and open
