Fm        D#
Take, take it all away
C#                 G#
Save my heart for another day
I'm up late on the telephone
And I'm all alone with the dial tone
Wait, wait 'til the sun is up
Drown my dreams in a coffee cup
Palms out, wanna beg for luck
But I'm way too proud
Never giving up

Chorus:
Fm D# C#               G#
Oh, something's gotta happen
Something's gotta give
And something's got to break
I know someday it's gonna happen
Someday it's gonna give
Can't always be this way
And if the riptide comes to get me
And pulls me under
It won't upset me
I'll go down
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
I'll throw the white flag of surrender
Knock me down
Not forever
Just for now
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

Give, give everything I've got
Out of reach, but I'll take a shot
Kick rocks in the parking lot
Feel like giving up
But I'll never stop
Run, run, running like a fool
Never win if you never lose
Find hope and a little truth
Gonna learn new tricks
Gotta jump through hoops

Not forever, just for now
Not forever, just for now
Not forever, not forever, not forever
Won't stay down
Not forever, just for now
Not forever, just for now
Not forever, not forever, not forever
Won't stay down

Chorus:
And if the riptide comes to get me
And pulls me under
It won't upset me
And if the riptide comes to get me
And pulls me under
It won't upset me
I'll go down
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh)
I'll throw the white flag of surrender
Knock me down
Not forever
Just for now
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
And if the riptide comes to get me
And pulls me under
It won't upset me
And if the riptide comes to get me
And pulls me under
It won't upset me
I'll go down
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh)
I'll throw the white flag of surrender
Knock me down
Not forever
Just for now
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
