B               F#   B E                  A   E
Must be getting early, clocks are running late
F#                      B    E
Paint-by-number morning sky, looks so phony
B                F#   B      E               A         E
Dawn is breaking everywhere, light a candle, curse the glare
F#                 B              E
Draw the curtains, I don't care, 'cause it's alright

F# B        E    F# B        E
I  will get by - I  will get by
F# B        A E F#             E     A E E  B F# F#  B F# F#
I  will get by       I will survive

B                     F#   B    E                  A   E
I see you've got your list out, say your piece and get out
F#            B               E
Yes I get the gist of it, but it's all right
B              F#        B    E                    A     E
Sorry that you feel that way, the only thing there is to say
F#                          B             E
Every silver lining's got a touch of grey

F# B        E    F# B        E
I  will get by - I  will get by

I  will get by       I will survive


CHANGE
C#m    C#7       F#      C#m           C#7            F#
It's a lesson to me, the Ables and the Bakers and the Cs
G#m   Eb7 C#7         F#   B7          E             F#
The ABCs we all must face, and try to keep a little grace

BREAK ON VERSE AND CHORUS

CHANGE
C#m    C#7       F#      C#m           C#7            F#
It's a lesson to me, the deltas and the east and the freeze
G#m   Eb7 C#7          F#  B7       E            F#
The ABCs, we all think of, try to give a little love

B          F#         B        E                    A      E
I know the rent is in arrears, the dog has not been fed in years
F#                   B               E
It's even worse than it appears, but it's all right
B           F#   B    E                 A    E
Cows giving kerosene, kid can't read at seventeen
F#                     B                E
The words he knows are all obscene, but it's all right

F# B        E    F# B        E
I  will get by - I  will get by
F# B        A E F#             E     A E E  B F# F#  B F# F#
I  will get by       I will survive

B                  F#      B     E                      A       E
The shoe is on the hand it fits, there's really nothing much to it
F#                             B      E
Whistle through your teeth and spit, 'cause, it's all right
B           F#       B     E                 A  E
Oh, well, a touch of grey, kind of suits you anyway
F#             B           E
That was all I had to say and it's all right
