[Verse 1]

Cm
Early in the morning

Cm
Rise to meet the sun

Fm
Work so hard to feed your wife

Fm
No time to show her loving

           Cm
And in the madness of the evening

       Cm
With diamonds in your hand

      Fm
Came home an hour early

Fm
Caught her with another man


[Chorus]

Cm
It's always something before the late night

Fm
Around the corner, there's always something waiting for you

Cm
Can't hold the hands back, can't make the sun rise

Fm
It's always something, you know it's always something

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]

Cm
On your way back home again

Cm
A good samaritan

     Fm
You see a man stuck in the rain

Fm
Stranded with no friends

               Cm
And from the goodness of your heart

Cm
You saved him from the flood

    Fm
A couple miles down the road

Fm
He's covered in your blood


[Chorus]

Cm
It's always something before the late night

Fm
Around the corner, there's always something waiting for you

Cm
Can't hold the hands back, can't make the sun rise

Fm
It's always something, you know it's always something

[Interlude]

[Bridge]

F        Eb         Ab
Moving around you never see it coming

F               Eb        Ab
Burned by the light you thought that you were running

F         Eb            Ab
Blinded again, you're floating like a feather

F              Eb      Ab
Why can't you see you can't control the weather?


Cm
Sometimes, I caught myself looking in the mirror

           Fm
With my eyeballs out and I'm looking at the fear

         Cm
In the bottom of the drain, saw it growing like a plant

         Fm
But it never works out the way I wrote it in my hands

    Cm
I tried, I tried, I tried, I tried

  Fm
Decide, decide, decide, decide

(It's always something)

Cm
Decide, decide, decide, decide

Fm
Decide, decide, decide, decide


[Chorus]

Cm
It's always something before the late night

Fm
Around the corner, there's always something waiting for you

Cm
Can't hold the hands back, can't make the sun rise

Fm
It's always something, you know it's always something

Fm
You know it's always something

Fm
You know it's always something
