Tom: Gm
Bb Bbmaj7
She polished every piece of silverware
Eb
Straightened all the kitchen chairs
Bb Bbmaj7 Eb
Saying I'm so close, but I'm not there yet
Bb Bbmaj7
She gets her grief to hide behind
Eb
Napkin rings and vacuum lines
Bb Bbmaj7 Eb
He's not coming home but the table's all set
[Pre-chorus]
Cm7 Eb
Sometimes life is such a disaster
Cm7 Eb
And until we find the peace that we're after
[Chorus]
Bb Bbmaj7
Oh, we all cope
Eb
Everybody's got their ways
Bb Bbmaj7 Eb
I know I've got mine
[Verse 2]
Bb Bbmaj7
At the back of Monday's matinee
Eb
There's a man with failure on his face
Bb Bbmaj7 Eb
Saying I'm so close, it's like a joke now
Bb Bbmaj7
He's got a ticket stub in his suit
Eb
For each dead end job interview
Bb Bbmaj7 Eb
Like he's collecting reasons for laughing out loud
[Pre-chorus]
Cm7 Eb
You know any minute, things could get better
Cm7 Eb
And for now we hold our pieces together
[Chorus]
Bb Bbmaj7
Oh, we all cope
Eb
Everybody's got their ways
Bb Bbmaj7 Eb
Yeah I know I've got mine
Bb Bbmaj7
Oh, the blinds are closed
Eb
You're doing anything it takes
Bb Bbmaj7 Eb
To get you through tonight
Cm7 Eb
We all need hope
Cm7 Eb F
And until we're there
Bb
We cope
[Bridge]
Gm Eb
We're just seconds from
Bb Gm
Sunrise
Eb
We're holding on
Bb
Through dark skies
D Gm Bb
Until we feel that light
Bbmaj7 Eb
Yeah, we all cope
[Chorus]
Bb Bbmaj7
Oh, the blinds are closed
Eb
You're doing anything it takes
Bb Bbmaj7 Eb
To get you through tonight
Cm7 Eb
We all need hope
Cm7 Eb F
And until we're there
Bb Eb
We cope
[Outro]
Bb Bbmaj7
She polished every piece of silverware
Eb
Straighten all the kitchen chairs
Bb Bbmaj7 Eb
Saying I'm so close, but I'm not there yet
