                     Bm           D 
it's hard to tell as daytime

becomes confused with night time. 
                   Bm               D 
there's just never enough time.  
           E 
i'm always tired.

it's hard to make the most of 
         Bm       D 
being so lucky 
                   Bm       D 
when i feel like a ghost 
            E 
most of the time.
