Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Woke up this mornin', baby, with pain all through my bones
Fibromyalgia's got me, sweet darlin', and it won't leave me alone
I try to move, but my body's stiff, like a rusty old gate
I'm just a shadow of my former self, sweet darlin', it's a cryin' shame
[Chorus]
Oh, fibromyalgia, you got me in your grasp
Ain't no escape, sweet darlin', from this chronic pain at last
I'm searching for relief, but it's hard to find
Oh, fibromyalgia, you're always on my mind
[Verse 2]
Some days I can't get out of bed, sweet darlin', the pain's too much to bear
Other days I can function, but it's like I'm walking through quicksand, with no care
I try to remember, sweet darlin', what it's like to feel alive
But fibromyalgia's got me, sweet darlin', and it won't let me thrive
[Chorus]
Oh, fibromyalgia, you got me in your grasp
Ain't no escape, sweet darlin', from this chronic pain at last
I'm searching for relief, but it's hard to find
Oh, fibromyalgia, you're always on my mind
[Verse 3]
I see my friends, sweet darlin', they're living their lives
While I'm stuck in this body, that's full of strife
I try to keep up, sweet darlin', but it's hard to pretend
That I'm not suffering, sweet darlin', from this fibromyalgia's cruel hand
[Chorus]
Oh, fibromyalgia, you got me in your grasp
Ain't no escape, sweet darlin', from this chronic pain at last
I'm searching for relief, but it's hard to find
Oh, fibromyalgia, you're always on my mind
[Blues Guitar Solo]
[Guitar] [Slow, mournful solo, with bends and vibrato]
[Verse 4]
I'm trying to stay positive, sweet darlin', but it's hard to do
When your body's screaming, sweet darlin', and there's nothin' you can do
I'm searching for a cure, sweet darlin', a way to break free
From this fibromyalgia, sweet darlin', that's got a hold on me
[Chorus]
Oh, fibromyalgia, you got me in your grasp
Ain't no escape, sweet darlin', from this chronic pain at last
I'm searching for relief, but it's hard to find
Oh, fibromyalgia, you're always on my mind
[Verse 5]
I'll keep on fighting, sweet darlin', I won't give up the fight
I'll keep on searching, sweet darlin', for a way to shine a light
On this dark and lonely road, sweet darlin', that I'm traveling down
I'll keep on moving forward, sweet darlin', till I wear my crown
[Bridge]
Maybe someday, sweet darlin', I'll find my way out
Of this fibromyalgia, sweet darlin', and I'll shout
I'm free at last, sweet darlin', I'm free from this pain
And I'll live my life, sweet darlin', like I'm living again
[Outro]
So if you see me, sweet darlin', with my head hung low
Just know that I'm fighting, sweet darlin', and I won't let go
I'll keep on singing, sweet darlin', these blues away
And maybe someday, sweet darlin', I'll find a brand new day
[END]
sweet darlin', a way to break free
From this fibromyalgia, sweet darlin', that's got a hold on me
[Chorus]
Oh, fibromyalgia, you got me in your grasp
Ain't no escape, sweet darlin', from this chronic pain at last
I'm searching for relief, but it's hard to find
Oh, fibromyalgia, you're always on my mind
[Verse 5]
I'll keep on fighting, sweet darlin', I won't give up the fight
I'll keep on searching, sweet darlin', for a way to shine a light
On this dark and lonely road, sweet darlin', that I'm traveling down
I'll keep on moving forward, sweet darlin', till I wear my crown
[Bridge]
Maybe someday, sweet darlin', I'll find my way out
Of this fibromyalgia, sweet darlin', and I'll shout
I'm free at last, sweet darlin', I'm free from this pain
And I'll live my life, sweet darlin', like I'm living again
[Outro]
So if you see me, sweet darlin', with my head hung low
Just know that I'm fighting, sweet darlin', and I won't let go
I'll keep on singing, sweet darlin', these blues away
And maybe someday, sweet darlin', I'll find a brand new day
[END]
away
And maybe someday, sweet darlin', I'll find a brand new day
[Blues Guitar Solo]
