One day

Verse 1
the wind stopped blowing,
the dust hit on the hood
One day the heat kept growing,
so we walked away for good
One day the kid I used to know,
came marching in the town
Struck out his demons showing,
his confidence shot down

One day I gave up hopin'

It ain't cause I don't care
I'm lookin' forward to tomorrow,
but I just don't see you there

 (E minor) One day you're gonna wake up,
face up to what you did
One day you're gonna realize
that you're not a little kid
One day the world will stop turning,
no one will pay the bill
One day though I'll just leave you
chasing dragons in the jail
Now I guess it rains when you need it,
I guess it pours when you don't
These letters that I sent you,
just forget I ever wrote
