Intro:
F#m E F#m E
F#m E
This is not the way it's
F#m E
Supposed to be
Bm A G
Spend my day in fear of all
Bm A
It sets me free
F#m E
I beg your pardon
F#m E
For what I do and say
Bm A G
I can hold myself to blame
Bm A
But the sure remains the same
Ref:
G Em
Will success fail me?
D A
Will it make me free?
G Em
What they tell me I should want?
D A
Is it what I need?

F#m E
Hey Mom, Hey Dad
F#m E
The story went
Bm A G
Round the burning wheels of faith
Bm A
It pays the rent
F#m E
Hey sister, hey brother
F#m E
I had to choose
Bm A G
Choose between the win and lose
Bm A
But what's the use?
Ref:
Will success fail me?
Will it make me free?
What they tell me I should want?
Is it what I need?
Come March come April
Come may and June
Let the pounding seconds go
There's nothing I can do
Will success fail me?
Will it make me free?
What they tell me I should want?
Is it what I need? (x 2)
Is there something I can do?
