You've Got Time

J.W.Pepper Editor's Choice Arrangement!

This tough-as-nails rock song by Regina Spektor is the opening theme for the TV series "Orange Is The New Black". It features gritty electric guitar and a driving rhythm section. It ends with an 8 bar vocal chord, rising optimistically before finally being crushed by a chaotic loud percussion crash--or use the alternate full band tag ending for a more defined final statement.

Instrumentation: Piano/Synth/Guitar/Bass/Drums/2 Tpt/2 Tbn/Alto, Tenor, & Bari Sax

Difficulty
Easy
The animals, the animals
Trapped, trapped, trapped 'till the cage is full
The cage is full
Stay awake
In the dark, count mistakes
The light was off but now it's on
Searching underground for a bit of sun
The sun is out, the day is new
And everyone is waiting, waiting on you
And you've got time
You've got time

Think of all the roads
Think of all their crossings
Taking steps is easy
Standing still is hard
Remember all their faces
Remember all their voices
Everything is different
The second time around

The animals, the animals
Trapped, trapped, trapped 'till the cage is full
The cage is full
Stay awake
In the dark, count mistakes
The light was off but now it's on
Searching underground for a bit of sun
The sun is out, the day is new
And everyone is waiting, waiting on you
And you've got time

(Regina Spektor)
