[Intro]
N.C. Hey, every once in a
Few months when
N.C. All the punches land Am Em Dm Am [Verse]
Am Well f**k last year
I’m glad it’s done
Em And here’s three weak cheers the
Next will be a better one
Dm Measuring my life in
Unanswered messages
Am Stressing all the little stuff,
The thing that’s pathetic is
Am I haven’t slept sober
In a long, long time
Em Because I start having arguments as
Dm
Soon as I close my eyes Vicious fights,
Bitter and confusеd
Am And the dumbest part is,
G
Sometimеs I even lose
G The will to start again G And every day feels like an end [Chorus]
C F C But hey, every once in a
F C
Few months when
G Am All the punches land
C F C That day, I’m a tiger,
C F C
A prize fighter
G Am At least worth a damn [Verse]
Am Damnit, goddamn,
I went and f**ked it up
Em Every single day like a
Clock that’s stuck
Dm It’s another fine morning
Rolling down in the muck
Am I’ve been trying to look up and
Trying to find me some luck
Am Every sunrise the cycle starts again Em I’ve been walking into
Glass doors since 7am
Dm Trying to break the cycle,
Trying to make some new friends
Am I guess it would be
Easier than making amends
G And then I feel the buzz, the glow G Of one sweet day a
Few months ago [Chorus]
C F C When hey, every once in a
F C
Few months when
G Am All the punches land C F C That day, I’m a tiger,
C F C
A prize fighter
G Am At least worth a damn C F C Hey, every once in
F C
A few months when
G Am All the punches land
C F C That day, I’m a tiger,
C F C
A prize fighter
G Am At least worth a damn [Bridge]
G And I don’t want to be a
Am F G
Beggar always asking for slack;
Gonna take the things
Am
They threw at me and
F G
Throw them right back
Am I’m tired of only ever trying to
F G
Do what I can;
Am The secret is to try and do the
F
Things that you can’t [Verse]
C I can’t promise that
I’m going to be fine
G But I’ll throw my best
Punch every single time
F Even though I’m skinny,
Don’t know how to fight
Am I’ve got the makings of a
Champion every once in a while
C Twenty four seven,
Three sixty five
G I'm holding up my head the
Keep the dream alive
F Of one perfect day
When the stars align
Am I’m fine, I’m fine,
I’m fine, I’m fine
G I got the whole world in my sights [Chorus]
C And hey, every once in a
