Am F C G (x2)
Am F
Can you hear the desperate cries
C G
that are calling out your name?
Am F
Twisting your arms, holding out their hands
C G
And tugging at your sleeve,
Am F C G
Do you feel this underlying sense of urgency
Am F C G
Or are you as blind as me?
Am F
I hit the ground and I'm still running
C G
But I need a place to stay tonight,
Am F
I swear I'll be gone in the morning
C G
I just need somewhere now
Am F
I can't bear the thought of losing,
C G
I dread the attention winning brings
Am F
And ever since the day I came here
C G
I can stand without your strings
Am F
I'm so sick of all these people
C G
But I'm scared to be alone
Am F
And if this life has taught me anything
C G
I forgot it long ago and so I
Am F
I hit the ground and I'm still running
C G
But I need a place to stay tonight,
Am F
I swear I'll be gone in the morning
C G
I just need somewhere warm to close my eyes
Am F
I hit the ground and I'm still running
C G
But I need a place to stay tonight,
Am F
I swear I'll be gone in the morning
C G
I just need somewhere warm to close my eyes
Am (Let Ring)
The heart is something you can't control
F
We either choose to follow or be left on our own
C (Strum slowly)
So we're leaving here on a less-traveled road
G
As desperate cries grow louder,
(Let Ring) Am G
I know we're getting close, getting close
Am F
I hit the ground and I'm still running
C G
But I need a place to stay tonight,
Am F
I swear I'll be gone in the morning
C G
I just need somewhere warm to close my eyes
(*N.C*)
I hit the ground and I'm still running
But I need a place to stay tonight,
I swear I'll be gone in the morning
I just need somewhere warm to close my eyes
