Standard (EADGBE)

Ain't it hard when you wake up in the morning

 and you find out those other days are gone?

 All you have is memories of happiness

linger in' on.

All your dreams and your lovers won't protect you;

they're only passing through you in the end.

They'll leave you stripped of all that they can get to,

and wait for you to come back again.

Yet still a light is shining

from that lamp on down the hall.

Maybe the star of Bethlehem

wasn't a star at all.
