[INTRO]
[G] [Em] [C] [D]
[VERSE]
[G]Everyday moves from a blessing to a curse
[Em]Pull out of the driveway slip it in reverse
Take a [C]turn for the better, a turn for the worse
And you're [D]stuck out on the interstate again
[VERSE]
[G]Sit at a desk and watch the clock
[Em]Time slows down and grinds to a stop
You [C]wish it was a dream but you know it's not
And it's [D]getting too hard to pretend
[CHORUS]
But you [Em]do it every [G]day, you [D]don't know [G]why
You [Em]paint by [C]numbers, [D]pass away your [G]time
Ain't no reason, [D]ain't no [G]rhyme
You [C]do it every day but you [D]don't know [G]why [D]
[VERSE]
[G]She wakes up to an empty bed
[Em]Lies there alone with the thoughts in her head
All the [C]words unspoken, words unsaid
She [D]throws back the covers and heads downstairs
[VERSE]
The [G]coffee on the counter is black and cold
[Em]Silence breaks, the day unfolds
But you [C]looked in the mirror, be it so old
It's just the [D]things you do to survive
[CHORUS]
'Cause you [Em]do it every [G]day and y[D]ou don't kn[G]ow why
[Em]Stepping on a [C]tightrope, [D]walking on the [G]wire
Ain't no reason, [D]ain't no [G]rhyme
You [C]do it every day but you [D]don't know [G]why
{Lead Break]
[G] [D] [G] [D]
[VERSE]
[G]Everyday moves from a blessing to a curse
But [Em]life goes on for better or worse
All the [C]years slip by, the months are a blur
Leaving [D]only enough to remember
[VERSE]
So you [G]wonder how it ever got down to this
There [Em]must've been something that you just missed
Or [C]maybe this is all that there really is
Now out[D]side a new day is beginning
[CHORUS]
Well, [Em]skip to it every [G]day and you [D]don't know [G]why
The [Em]skeletons [C]rattle and the [D]old bones [G]lie
Ain't no reason, [D]ain't no [G]rhyme
Oh, you [C]do it everyday
You do it everyday
Do it every day but you [D]don't know[G] why
[G] [Em] [C] [D]
