Em  F#m11  Cmaj7/G  F#m11  x2

Verse:
Em                      F#m11            Cmaj7/G      F#m11
I keep on running but I can’t get to the mountain
Em                F#m11            Cmaj7/G            F#m11
Behind me lie the years that I mis-spent
Em                           F#m11         Cmaj7/G    F#m11
And I’ve been sitting like a flower in the fountain
             Em             F#m11          Cmaj7/G    F#m11
When all the love I’m gonna need is heaven sent

Pre-chorus:
      Asus2
Gonna try my best to get there
      Cmaj7/G
But I can’t afford the bus fare
Dsus2
 The storm that’s rolling over
        Asus2          Cmaj7/G
Man, it makes me wanna cry

Chorus:
Em         F#m11    Cmaj7/G                 F#m11
When I was told the streets were paved with gold
                Em              F#m11           Cmaj7/G      F#m11
And it be known time is getting on when we were young
Em       F#m11       Cmaj7/G       F#m11
It’s alright, if you dance with me tonight
                Em           F#m11               Cmaj7/G     F#m11
We’ll fight the dying of the light and catch the sun

Break:
Em  F#m11  Cmaj7/G  F#m11  x2

Verse:
Em                    F#m11                    Cmaj7/G      F#m11
Woke up sleeping on a train that was bound for nowhere
Em                      F#m11            Cmaj7/G            F#m11
The echoes that I could hear were all my own
Em                   F#m11        Cmaj7/G                  F#m11
The world had turned I’d become a stranger
    Em       F#m11            Cmaj7/G          F#m11
Got tired of watching all the flowers turn to stone

Pre-chorus II:
      Asus2
Gonna try my best to get there
      Cmaj7/G
But I can’t afford the bus fare
Dsus2
 The storm that’s rolling over
        Asus2          A9
Man, it makes me wanna cry
         Cmaj7/G
Feel the cold against my shoulder
        Dsus2
When it comes on in the winter
       Asus2
And it seems to last forever
       Cmaj7/G         F#m11          Em
And it makes me wanna, makes me wanna cry

Chorus:
           F#m11    Cmaj7/G                 F#m11
When I was told the streets were paved with gold
                Em              F#m11           Cmaj7/G      F#m11
And it be known time is getting on when we were young
Em       F#m11       Cmaj7/G       F#m11
It’s alright, if you dance with me tonight
                Em           F#m11               Cmaj7/G     F#m11
We’ll fight the dying of the light and catch the sun

Man, it makes me wanna cry

Chorus:
Em         F#m11    Cmaj7/G                 F#m11

End:

        Em              F#m11       Cmaj7/G     F#m11
And the cold against my shoulder
        Em              F#m11
When it comes on in the winter
        Cmaj7/G        F#m11
Man, it makes me wanna cry
        Em              F#m11       Cmaj7/G     F#m11
And the cold against my shoulder
