[Verse 1]
Dm                                                  C
I found I was standing on the dock on the Fourth of July
Gm
I couldn't find my footing
                             Dm   C
Didn't know where I was that night
Bb                                            F/C
You walk away wondering if everything will be alright
          C
After some time


[Verse 2]
Dm
I fell asleep too soon
                                C
Didn't know I was drowning in place
    Gm                                                 Dm   C
I missed all the ooh's and the aah's and the choices I made
      Bb                                              F/C
I was chasing after something and I knew that it wasn't real
           C
It wasn't right


[Pre-Chorus]
      Bb                           F/C
Cause all the while I thought I was ahead
           C
I was behind
             Dm           C
I lost the freedom that I had
          Bb
That night


[Chorus]
    F             C/E
But you and I can get this right
   Dm           C                 F             C/E
If on the other side, it's impossible to get it right
             Dm    C
Here in this life


[Verse 3]
    Gm                                                             Dm    C
And if you find that you are still alone when you think you're alright
      Gm                                               Dm    C
You're better off standing on your knees to understand why
Bb                                                     F/C
Yeah, maybe holding onto something there that isn't real

         C
It isn't right
                 Bb
It will drag you down
                 Bb 
It's your only chance
                   F/C   C
It will take your life


[Pre-Chorus]
  Bb
I stood above the sea
           F/C           C
I took the cup for me to drink
      Dm
I was afraid
              C          Bb
I was turning water into wine


[Chorus]
    F             C/E
But you and I can get this right
   Dm           C                 F             C/E
If on the other side, it's impossible to get it right
             Dm    C
Here in this life

    F             C/E
And every now and then
             Dm                C
It starts to make some sort of sense
            F             C/E
It's impossible to get it right
               Dm    C
All of the time


[Bridge]
Gm                 Dm      C 
Gm                 Dm      C 

Gm                 Bb       
But I read it all wrong
Dm                C    
I was still in the light
Gm                 Bb      
I was right all along
Dm                      C                 
When they punctured his side

Gm                 Bb       
But I read it all wrong
Dm                C    
I was still in the light
Gm                 Bb      
I was right all along
                        Dm           C                 
When they punctured his side made me right


[Chorus]
    F             C/E
But you and I can get this right
   Dm           C                 F             C/E
If on the other side, it's impossible to get it right
             Dm    C
Here in this life

    F             C/E
And every now and then
             Dm                C
It starts to make some sort of sense
            F             C/E
It's impossible to get it right
               Dm    C
All of the time


[Outro]
            F             C/E
It's impossible to get it right
               Dm    C
All of the time.                
            F             C/E
It's impossible to get it right
               Dm    C
All of the time.  
            F             C/E
It's impossible to get it right
               Dm    C
All of the time.  
             F
It's impossible
