You can brace yourself for it

There are hints of forgiveness

Bm7 D G C

You can stand as your witness but they will let you drop

That you trip on the light rail

G Em7 D

And you feel you owe too much to even ask

D

What a thankless task



They all want you to call them

The hint from the dare wouldn't dare solid real

They all want to be near you

Hoping something will rub off that they can touch feel

And you don't even know what they say

You just hope that it comes in your hair

And it makes you want to just look back and laugh

Em7 G

What a thankless task Thankless task

Em7 G Em7 G E

Thankless task Thankless task Oh yeah



Push buttons and pull pumps

But don't know what comes out in the end

And it never stops there's always a price on your head

Where in the world will it end?

Will they ever let it drop?

And you don't even see the betrayal

As you trip on the light rail

And you feel you owe too much to even ask

What a thankless task Thankless task

Thankless task Thankless task

What a thankless task
