A           C#7                        F#m    D
Goodnight stress, I'll see you in the morning
A              C#7                        F#m  D
I don't gotta guess, you're always there for me
A            C#7        F#m
Sowing them seeds of doubt I think you like seeing
 D
me
freak out
A            C#7                       F#m   D
Goodnight stress, I'll see you in the morning

So I wake up, I get out of bed
Stay up, stay out of my head
'Cause it’s dangerous
And I don't wanna lose my mind, no

Chorus:
A              C#7          F#m                D
I just wanna shine Like the sun when it comes up
         A                    C#7        F#m
Run the city from the rooftops   'Cause today's
            D
gonna be my day
A             C#7          F#m            D
I just wanna climb To the top of a mountain
          A                  C#7         F#m
Standing tall when I'm howling 'Cause today's
             D
gonna be my day

I used to lay low, hiding in the shadows
So don't give me dark days, I already had those
I'm just trying to figure out how to be myself
right now
I don't wanna lay low, hiding in the shadows

So I wake up, I get out of bed
Stay up, stay out of my head
'Cause it's dangerous
And I don't wanna lose my mind, no

Chorus

I wake up and I stay up
'Cause I'm sure good things will happen
If I get out of my way

Chorus
