This is how I play this song on my acoustic guitar. I put a CAPO on the 4th fret.
It suits my voice nicely, but don t be afraid to move it around to your liking :-)
Sometimes in the morning i am petrified and can t move
Awake but cannot open my eyes
And the weight is crushing down on my lungs i know i can t breath
And hope someone will save me this time
Your mother s still calling you insane and high
Swearing it s different this time
And you tell her to give in to the demons that possess her
And that god ever blessed her insides
Then you hang up the phone and feel badly for upsetting things
And crawl back into bed to dream of a time
When your heart was open wide and you loved things just because
Like the sick and the dying
And sometimes when you re on you re really ing on
And your friends they sing along and they love you
But the lows are so extreme that the good seems ing cheap
And it teases you for weeks in its absense
But you ll fight and you ll make it through
You ll fake it if you have to
And you ll show up for work with a smile
And you ll be be better you ll be smarter
More grown up and a better daughter
Or son and a real good friend
And you ll be awake and you ll be alert
You ll be positive though it hurts
And you ll laugh and embrace all your friends
And you ll be a real good listener
You ll be honest you ll be brave
You ll be handsome you ll be beautiful
You ll be happy

Your ship may be coming in
You re weak but not giving in
To the cries and the wails of the valley below
Your ship may be coming in
You re weak but not giving in
And you ll fight it you ll go out fighting all of them
G,C,G,C,G,D X2 ((FADE OUT))
