The Cave

B
My nature is a darkness that I learn to navigate
         G#m                        F#
But I'll never stop trying to illuminate it
B
Swallowed by a cave it happened at an early age
       G#m                         F#
And I never bothered planning an escape
E                     F#
It could always be better
G#m                           C#
And it sure as hell could be worse
     B                  F#                 G#m            E
So I crack a grin and I crack a beer and I lace up for another year
         B                             F#                B  F#  B
Because where there's life there will always be a fight


[Chorus]
B  F#  G#m    E   B      F#   B
La da   La da da  La da dada da
   F#         G#m F# E    B  F#  B
Da dada da da da da dada da dada da da


[Verse]
B
I've seen life and I've seen death

I've been east and I've been west
     G#m
I've lived and loved
         F#
And I've made stories to tell
              B
I've seen the bottom of the bottle more times than I can follow
        G#m                         F#
And the only thing I believe in is myself
E                     F#
That's good enough for me
            G#m               C#
It should be good enough for you
         B            F#          G#m                E
Because if there is a God above I know that I will know his love
               B              F#                  B  F#  B
Because I've always lived a life that has been true


[Chorus]
B  F#  G#m    E   B      F#   B
La da   La da da  La da dada da
   F#         G#m F# E     B  F#  B
Da dada da da da da dada da dada da da


[Verse]
B
We all want what we can't have

Till its just within our grasp
          G#m                     F#
And we're surprised when the emptiness does not subside
        B
I know fleeting inner peace

That comes with nothing complete release
             G#m                          F#
With all the bullshit that I try to keep inside
E                  F#
I don't care about right or wrong
G#m                C#m
I just care about writing songs
   B                  F#            G#m           E
So you can keep the gimmicks, I'll focus on my lyrics
         B              F#      B  F#  B
And I'll see you on the other side


[Chorus]
B  F#  G#m    E   B      F#   B
La da   La da da  La da dada da
   F#         G#m F# E     B  F#  B
Da dada da da da da dada da dada da da
