Am
The rungs of this ladder are broken, we're stuck
     C
In a pit to forget the escape's the way out
    G
But what's one to do when the only thing comforting
G                   E
Leads to an eternal sleep underground
Am
Everyone has their addictions,
            C
Everybody's weak and everyone someday will die
   G
If everything's random we're so insignificant
    G                         E
And none of this matters then why even try?
Am
We're all just costumed illusions of self
   C
We sift through the filth to discover our wealth
    G
But riches are not always silver and gold
         G                  E
Just somebody to love and a clean bill of health
        Am
Is what this life is all about
                       C
And I know that it's easy to get caught up in trivial shit
    G
But when it feels like the roof is cavin' in
       E      
Just remember that none of this matters in death and

[Chorus]
Am                  C             G
Take your hands off of the wheel
            E                    Am
And let the chips fall where they may
        C                  G
Time is short and death is sure
           E              Am   C
So just be grateful for today
      G   G
For today
E     Am   C
For today
      G   G E
For today

[Verse]
  Am
A life time of whiskey a couple of years
  C
A life of mistakes for a couple of beers
      G
We're marionettes and the puppeteers clutchin'
   G                      E
So fucking hard trying to paint on a smile
     Am
That they think looks right but their rights our wrong
    C
The nights are too short and the days are too long
          G
When they want you to color inside of the lines
        G                         E
But the picture looks better with scribbles outside
       Am
Of the lessons we've learned, when the bridges are burnt
        C
And the power goes out the control that you've earned
      G        
Means nothing, we're all gonna die
                     G
We're runnin' out of time
N.C.
What i do is none of your concern

[Chorus]
Am                  C             G
Take your hands off of the wheel
            E                     Am
And let the chips fall where they may
        C                  G
Time is short and death is sure
           E              Am   C
So just be grateful for today
      G   G
For today
E     Am   C
For today
      G   G E
For today
