Eels - On My Feet

as always from the eels , simple but beautiful .

one , two , three
two , two , three

C
i Am a man
in great pain over
F
great beauty
C
it’s not easy
standing on my feet
F
these days

Dm
but you know i’m pretty sure that
C G
i’ve been through worse
Dm C G
and i’m sure i can take the hit

C
i pushed the bed against the window today
F
so there’d only be one side
C
well , it’s a little less lonely that way
F
but i’m still dying inside

Dm
when i wake up
C G
in the middle of the night
Dm
no one’s gonna tell me
C G
i’ll be all right

C
so many thousands
of days in my life
F
that i don’t remember
C
and a small handful
of days that i do
F
hold near to my heart
Dm
and one of those days
C G
that i remember well
Dm C G
is about me and you

C
when it’s time
to look back on my life
F
most of it won’t seem so important
C
the shit that matters
and what i’ll really miss
F
is falling asleep with your arms around me

Dm C G
waking up knowing that you’re there
Dm C G
making everything feel right in the world

C
people sleeping
in hazmat suits
F
taping up their windows
C
it’s a mad , mad , mad , mad , mad , mad world
F
and it’s hard to make any sense of it

Dm C G
but one thing i know that is true in this world
Dm C G
is the love that i felt for you

C
being on my feet these days
F
well , it’s a wonder i survive
C
no one taught me how to live on my own
F
i’m running scared

Dm C G
one sweet day i’ll be back on my feet
Dm C G
and i’ll be all right

C
i just gotta get
back on my feet

F and so on
