EWalk around the G#corner,
ANever saw it coming still,
EI try to make a G#move,
AIt almost stopped me from belief,
EI don't wanna knG#ow the future,
ABut I'm like rolling thunder

DEven on a cloudy Aday,
EEven on a cloudy dF#may,
DEven on a cloudy Aday,
EEven on a cloudy dF#may,
DEven on a cloudy Aday
