lyrics

Get It Down

Am
Laid back in a chair
Pondering your future
Seems you could be anywhere
But you just stick to that chair

Talking to yourself
Keeping a secret
Just who are you trying not to tell
You actions speak for themselves

Chorus (instrumental) C-G-D-Am-C-G-E-Am

Verse 2

Am
Its like you see it all
Oppritunity and dreams
But somethings come between
Your reach and the tree

Chorus

Its like you see everything around
But you just can't seem to get it down

Verse3

There ain't enough time to reason
The seconds are ticking by
Ambition, passion, love
Are wasted asking why

Chorus

Verse 4

What you gonna do when you wake up? "Gonna stomp my feet and change"
What you gonna do when they save give up "Gonna stomp my feet, be brave"

Breakdown

Gonna stomp. My feet.
Gonna stomp my feet and change
Gonna stomp. My feet.
Gonna stomp my feet be brave

Diddly

Gonna stomp my feet
Gonna stomp it and change
Gonna make my mark
Gonna do my thang
Gonna stomp my feet
Am
Be braaaaaave!

I can see, everything around
And this time, I'm gonna get it down!

Chorus (instrumental)

Outro Am-G x2 Chorus x 2
