Waking up, rolling out
Making a living that I’m paying for now
But you ain’t gonna find me crying baby
Work the hours to make you proud
It’s never easy even when you know how
But you won’t find a road we ain’t walked lately

Well the thrills don’t cost any money
And the pain don’t come back around
And the choir gets tired of preaching
To the choir we can finally hear that sound

CHORUS:
Sit tight, I know it’s heavy
While we’re in this side
But you and I will find that by and by
Hang on
One day the sadness will be good as gone
When you and I arrive in the by and by

City lights, edge of town
20 years to build just to watch it burn down
Hopeless ain’t a phrase you’ll hear me saying

Well the thrills don’t cost any money
And the pain don’t come back around
And the choir gets tired of preaching
To the choir we can finally hear that sound

CHORUS:
Sit tight, I know it’s heavy
While we’re in this side
But you and I will find that by and by
Hang on
One day the sadness will be good as gone
When you and I arrive in the by and by

BRIDGE:
I can hardly wait it been so long
No hesitation I’ll be headed home
