E | G#m | A Not the same as hoping, or believing, | B | all depending who you are. A | G#m | A | B | Whatever happens is well within control. E | G#m | A | E | But, a little dreaming, what nourishes the soul. ' | G#m | A | E | | A little dreaming. ' | G#m | A | E ' ' B | I make my planning. Then I do it up again.

This Living by Adam Belsky, all rights reserved 2019 F | | C | Soaking up another Monday Morning. | G | | Choking down another slice of humble pie. F | Fighting back another heap of something | C | G | Deep inside my windpipe, deep inside. C | Open up another can of something. | G | | Broken glass, a bunch of beer soaked cigarettes. F | Fishing for my keys inside my pockets, | C | G | I ain't found 'em yet. CHORUS F | Listening to the raindrops tapping | C | G | Rhythm on the gutters 'fore the sunrise. Dm | Pulling back the window shade a moment, | Am | G | Take a peek in from the dark side. C | Woke up early and its Monday morning | G | | Hope I find my keys in this apartment. F | Hope I find a reason for this living, | C | | When no one says I can't. F | | C | | Hope I find a reason for this living. ' | Breaking up another fifteen minutes. | G | | Shaking out another cornflake from the box. F | Stirring up another picture in the circles | C | G | In my tee shirt, in my socks. C | Waiting on familiar churchbells in the distance | G | | As the hands move quarter past. F | Hate to think about another Monday morning | C | G | That's starting like the last. [CHORUS]
