VERSE 1
E Asus2 A
C#m/A B
I sit and
wait.... while my meter contemplates
my fate...
E Asus2

Does anybody really know.. The anger that you feel... When you go high then low...
F#m7 A C#m
A
'Cause I've been
told... That salvation... Comes from
good control...
D A
So when I'm lying
in my bed... And a Shaky feeling starts to spread...
E D
A E
I should've had more bread... I'll do a blood test instead...
CHORUS
B C#m
And through it
all... My meter offers me protection
A E
Low blood glucose detection... whether I'm high or low?
B C#m
Else I'd be lying
on the floor... The low sugars they would
take me...
A
E/G#
A hypo it would
break me... Paramedics would come to call...
F#m Dadd2 A/C# E
And Glucagon would wake me... I'll test my blood sugars
instead
VERSE 2
E Asus2 A
C#m/A B
When I'm feeling
weak.... But I've stuffed my face with
lots to eat
E

C#m/A B
I look above... And I know I'll always be blessed with love
D A
And as my sugars
grow... Through my veins and to my toes...

I know returning from those lows
D A E
... I'll have a high
blood sugar instead.
