Verse 1
G
Answers don't come
C
easy like they used to,
G
C
like they did when I was seventeen
G
And if it's this bad now,
C
I wonder what it's gonna be
Em
C
G
C
like when I'm sixty
Em
The minute hand keeps moving
C
and I can't escape its sound
Em
We're falling down an hourglass
D
G
Em
G
that never turns around
And my spirit leaves me
C
and I don't know where it goes
G
C
Feels like I do the same things
over and over
Em
If Jesus comes for me,
C
D
I don't think that I'll ever be prepared
C
And I'm like a lion in the summer,
D
but every other season
G
C
G
C
I'm just scared
G
I shook my fist to God,
C
but still it didn't stop
G
C
the angels watching over me.
G
I tried to lose my faith,
C
but I just can't escape
the feeling
G
C
someone's holding me.
Em
And if there's someone up there,
C
then I hope I make them proud,
Em
but most days I do best
C
if I just keep my demons down.
G
And my spirit leads me
C
and I don't know where it goes.
G
Feels like I do the same things
C
over and over
Em
And if it comes for me
C
D
I don't think that I'll ever be prepared
C
And I'm like a lion in the summer
D
But every other season
G
C
G
C
G
C
I'm just scared
G
Out on the water
C
I feel healthy and sane
G
I hear my sons and daughters
C
calling my name
Em
And I've never seen them
C
but I know just the same
G
C
They're there
G
I've got these fears
C
and they're tied straight to my chest
G
I've got these dreams
C
and no idea what's best
Em
But I see the waves
G
C
and hear them tell me to rest
G
C
They're there
Em
And I'm like a lion in the summer,
G
C
but every other season
G
My spirit leaves me
C
and I don't know where it goes
G
C
Feels like I do the same things
over and over
Em
If Jesus comes for me,
C
D
I don't think that I'll ever be prepared
C
And I'm like a lion in the summer,

I'm like a lion in the summer

I'm just scared
