Verse
Am
Monday morning runs to Sunday night, screaming slow me down before the new year dies
Won't take much to kill a lovin' smile, and every mother with a baby cryin in her arms sings
G5(9)
Give me help, give me strength
Am
Give a soul a night of fearless sleep
G5(9)
Give me love, give me peace
C E
Don't you know these days you pay for everything
Chorus
Am / Main Riff
Got high hopes, got high hopes
Got high hopes, got high hopes
(Main Riff)

Am
Comin' from the city, comin' from the wild,I see a breathless army breakin' like a cloud
They're gonna smother love, they're gonna shoot your hopes,
Before the meek inherit, they'll learn to hate themselves

Give a soul a night of fearless sleep

Give me love, give me peace

So tell me someone, now, what's the price, I wanna buy some time and maybe live my life
I wanna have a wife I wanna have some kids, I want to look in their eyes and know they stand a chance
