VERSE 1

G
Where will you go
            C  
when your wandering lust has left you
G
and all you've known in life  
      C                    D
are travelling troubadors?

G
Where will you fall
           C      
when your legs lose their courage?
G
You can't bear the thought 
            D                 G
of another long and winding road

G
What'll you do
             C
when you've got to say you're sorry
G
but it's so hard
                    C          D    
and you don't know where to begin?

G
How will you feel
             C
when you're lying on the train tracks
G
and you don't know if what you hear
       D              G 
is a whistle or the wind?


PD-C HORUS

Am
All the prayers we light
             D
asking for another shot at life
Am
all the lines we crossed 
                D
fighting for a long lost cause


CHORUS

Am
But I'll never apologise
Em
for secrets hidden in my eyes
C
praying for a desperate muse
Am                             D
fighting for the ones who'll never
                 G
make it through


VERSE 2-

G
Think real hard
         C
are you happy with your memories?
G                       C                D 
Satisfied with who you know yourself to be?
G
Who do you see 
          C
when you gaze at your reflection?
G                        D              G
Are you seeing who you really want to see?


PD-C HORUS

Am
All the prayers we light
             D
asking for another shot at life
Am
all the lines we crossed 
                D
fighting for a long lost cause


CHORUS

Am
But I'll never apologise
Em
for secrets hidden in my eyes
C
praying for a desperate muse
Am                             D
fighting for the ones who'll never
                 G
make it through


VERSE 3-

G
Who will save you 
             C
when you're lying in the gutter?
G                             C             D
The only hymns you know are songs on the radio.
G
Who'll you think of 
             C   
when you're wide awake at midnight
G                                      D                 G   
and all you've ever learned from life was how to live alone?


PD-C HORUS

Am
All the prayers we light
             D
asking for another shot at life
Am
all the lines we crossed 
                D
fighting for a long lost cause


CHORUS

Am
But I'll never apologise
Em
for secrets hidden in my eyes
C
praying for a desperate muse
Am                             D
fighting for the ones who'll never
                  G
make it through
