INTRO/VERSE

Dm                          C                            G

The snow was falling on his shoulders by the side of the road

Dm

And he watched as the sun went down

C

Falling on the building

G

Swallowing the children

Dm

It's the gun in your back
It's the heart attack

C                          G

It's the way you look back before you step out

Dm                               C                      G

In time to see the number of the bus that's running you down

CHORUS

Gm                                 F           C

A million lonely people with their head in the sand

Gm                                     F       C

Trying to make some sense of what they don't understand

Gm                          F           C     Bb

Waiting on somebody just to give them a hand, Heyyyy

Dm                                   C                G

You're designed to fall apart on the day the warrenty ends

Dm

And you try but you just can't stop

C

Running round in circles

G

Knocking over hurdles

Dm

It's the knife in your back
It's the heart attack

C                          G

It's the way you look back before you step out

Dm                               C                      G

In time to see the shadow of the one that's cutting you down

INSTRUMENTAL PIANO PART

OUTRO

Dm                          G

The snow was falling on his shoulders by the side of the road

Bb                                   A

And he watched as the lights came on below

Dm

And the children were sleeping

G

And the women were weeping

Bb                           A

There was nobody keeping him here

END

HOPE YOU ENJOY
