Cm
And life will happen real fast like a pinprick
      G#
And sometimes you're not even warned
       Cm
Yeah, life will happen so quick in a heartbeat
      G#
You dangle from threads badly torn

(Chorus:)
             Bb
Sometimes we run
              G#
Sometimes we crawl
                   Bb
Sometimes there's just
           Cm
No hope at all
                G#
So this is the cost
           Cm
This is the cost
                 Bb
For all that is lost
             Cm
All that is lost

(same base as the verse:)
And night will fall sometimes swifter than raindrops
And hold you too close to its chest
Your hands so strong have turned awfully skinny
No break if you're put to the test

(Chorus)

Cm            Gm         G#
Mamma's gonna make you believe
           Cm          Gm        Fm
There are better days over that hill
Cm            Gm         G#
Mamma's gonna make you believe
      Fm                        Bb
That good things are happening still

Mamma's gonna give you the world
Though the world is maybe last on your list
Mamma's gonna cradle your heart
Your heart is right in her fist

             G#   Bb
Sometimes we run...
             G#  Bb
Sometimes we run
              G#
Sometimes we crawl (carry on with the chorus)
