Cam Penner - Driftwood

      Capo 7

Am-G

Am
It?s gonna get worse before it gets better
I wrote it down in a love letter
          G
Sang it for you

Am
I know that love is the only redeemer
Everything else is just a make believer
           G 
Everything else

Am
How can you say you?ll change when you?re gripping the knife
When you?re dressed in forms of a previous life
          G               
Won?t you lay down your sword
Your shield and your pride

Am
Just ride in the river, crashin? on rock
Comin? up for air or just floating along
       G     
We?re all shaped like driftwood

  C                    D   
All you got to do is find some truth and see it through

Am-G-Am-G

Am
Even the words that I learned from my father
Are shining a light in the face of the darkness
         G
Shining a light

          Am
I know what I need and I already have it
You think it?s the money I?ve already spent it
                   G
You think it?s for glory I?ll only regret it
The story you sold I already forget it

         Am
I?m paying the rent, my head?s above water
What drove the wheel is the weight we are under
         G
Tell me how and why we?re not bothered
How and why

        Am
Now some go kicking, some willing lay down
Most already live with both feet in the ground
        G
Some won?t let go. Some won?t leave home
Some find it easier if they just don?t know
   
     C                           D   
And all we got to do is keep kicking the door until the light shines through

Am-G-Am-G

            Am
It's gonna get worse but its gonna get better
say it out loud and you'll always remember
            G 
It's gonna get worse, its gonna get better

        Am
It's gonna get worse but its gonna get better
It's gonna get worse but its gonna get better
        G
It's gonna get worse, its gonna get better
I get worse, I get better

Am-G-Am-G-Am-G-Am-G
