Sitting on the back porch, everybody be damned
Head in your hands, no particular plans
But oh, so many thoughts and dreams unheard
Words are nothing but words, words are nothing but words
See the little children rolling in the yard
And the sun goes down until it's almost dark
And hear the tɾain cry so many miles away
Another tɾain, another day
If you [A7ever make your mind up
I know, you [A7will be [Am]somebody
I know, part of you [A7wants to [C7]be [Am]everybody
But don't be [Am]afraid to [C7]fall, fall
Mason [C7]got [Fm7]his, you [A7know, that he did
He put his greedy eyes ɾight over the lid
And oh, the bomb went off ɾight in his face
Oh, he wears the scars with grace
But if you [A7ever make your mind up
I know, you [A7will be [Am]somebody
I know, part of you [A7wants to [C7]be [Am]everybody
But don't be [Am]afraid to [C7]fall, afraid to [C7]fall, afraid
Walking past the church, you [A7make the sign of the cross
Hey God, it wouldn't cost you [A7anything
To throw some light my [A]way
You see, I'm a little low on [C7]life today
A little low on [C7]life today, low on [C7]life today
Low on [C7]life today, low on [C7]life today
Lowlife, lowlife
