[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
Am
Tidy your books up
Am
Put them under your bed
Am
And gather your thoughts up
Am
But keep ’em in your head
Am
Be careful what you wish for
Am
Be careful what you dream
Am
They let you sing your songs, son
Am
But they’ll never hear you scream
D Am
Why
D Am
Why
[Verse 2]
Am
Button your coat up
Am
Take shelter from the rain
Am
They want you to be like them
Am
But you can never be the same
Am
’Cause you’re standing on the outside
Am
They’ll never let you in
Am
They’ll let you play the game, son
Am
But they’ll never let you win
D Am
Why
D Am
Why
[Instrumental]
Am
[Verse 3]
Am
Never let them bare witness
Am
To the tears in your eyes
Am
And never take a handshake
Am
From the prophets and their lies
Am
’Cause they put you in the wrong line
Am
You’ve been crying out for more
Am
They’ve given you the key, son
Am
But you’ll never find the door
D Am
Why
D Am
Why
[Solo]
Am Am7
[Verse 4]
Am
You’ve fallen like an angel
Am
Stranded on the earth
Am
They let you see their riches
Am
They never tell you what you’re worth
Am
They’ve put you in the back seat
Am
While they’re heading for the sun
Am
And if you’re waiting for the rapture
[Outro]
Am
The day will never come
D
The day will never come…
D
The day will never come…
Am
The day will never come…
Am
The day will never come…
D
The day will never come…
D
The day will never come…
Am
The day will never come…
Am
The day will never come…

The day will never come…

The day will never come…
