A young man’s gonna tell his folks the news tonight

They’ll put their hopes for grandkids in a box with all their fears

A college girl’s gonna take her hardest test tonight

A thin blue line will tell the truth, confirming all her tears

And someone just got hired for a million dollar bonus

And someone’s leaving home for somewhere safe

And someone just got fired and he’s got to tell his children

That the little things they need, they’re gonna have to wait

A million different worlds going on around us

A hundred different choices every moment of the day

A millions different worlds going on around us

What’s your’s today / 4 bar break

A boy in Massachusetts’ going back to boarding school today

He doesn’t want his dad to know he’s scared

A white haired woman prays for the daughter that she raised

Making deals with God to get her spared

And someone just got rescues from the fire that took their home

And someone just got back their S.A.T.s

Someone’s making someone else feel better in the dark

And someone found a way to make that little baby breathe

Chorus

8 bar solo Rich

Seems everybody’s got a choice at how they’re gonna live their lives

They’re lucky or they’re victims or they’re blessed

And I guess it’s easier by far to miss the wisdom where you are

And think you’d like to trade with all the rest

Well they might trade with you ... just as fast

8 bar solo MB

Someone’s getting married in the morning

And someone’s finally putting down those cigarettes for sure

Someone’s taking his first day off in 47 working years

And someone’s got a prom date, if he will only ask her

Chorus
