E


E
Headin' out on some uncharted path
      A
You soon turn back
    Bsus4   B        E
It happens time and time again
                   A             Bsus4 B
You never seem to reach the end
E
Someone's out there on the street tonight
       A
When things go wrong
        Bsus4 B        E
He'll guarantee to make them right
         A             Bsus4 B
If the price is right


A
Every time I look you're fallin' fallin'
E                  E7
Beaten by the wind
A                                     Bsus4  B
Every time I turn around he's there again

                        E
It's like a full force gale
              C#m
An American storm
                             A
You're buried far beneath a mountain of cold
                   Bsus4 B
And you never get warm
                     E
It's like a wall of mirrors
                         C#m
You charge 'em at full speed
                             A
You cover up- You hear the shattering glass
                Bsus4 B
But you never bleed
                    E       A   Bsus4 B
You never feel the need

E        A   Bsus4 B


E
Everybody casts a certain light
    A
A special gift
       Bsus4   B         E
It's theirs to use for wrong or right
          A               B
When you face the night
E
More and more we choose the easy way
    A
We take no risks
    Bsus4  B         E
We figure out which games to play
            A            Bsus4 B
And how to make 'em pay


A
Suddenly the pressure's fallin' fallin'
E                          E7
Skies have all turned grey
A                                            Bsus4  B
Suddenly the storm is heading straight your way


                        E
It's like a full force gale
                     C#m
A top a mountain of cold
                    A
You tell your story again and again
                  Bsus4 B
And it never gets old
                    E
You face a wall of mirrors
                         C#m
You charge 'em at full speed
                             A
You cover up- You hear the shattering glass
                Bsus4 B
But you never bleed

                       E
You face a full force gale
              C#m
An American storm
                             A
You're buried far beneath a mountain of cold
                   Bsus4                   B
And you never get warm- no, you never get warm
                    E
You face a wall of mirrors
                         C#m
You charge 'em at full speed
                             A
You cover up- You hear the shattering glass
                Bsus4 B
But you never bleed
                    C       Am
You never feel the need
                    E       A   Bsus4 B
You never feel the need
       E              A   Bsus4 B
Never feel the need
                E       A   Bsus4 B
Never feel the need
                    E       A   Bsus4 B
You never feel the need
E       A   Bsus4        B          E
Uuuuuh, uh, it's like a full force gale
      A   Bsus4  B      E
          An american storm
      A   Bsus4  B      E
          An american storm
      A   Bsus4  B      E
