Intro:
G
C

Verse:
G
Looking for a friend to hide me
F                      C
Looking for a place to stay
              G
But there was no one about, they had all gotten out
   G7                C
My friends had gone away

Verse:
            G
'Cause I was running in a crowded city
F                    C
Sleeping in a subway train
      G
But I don't want to know, 'cause it's too long ago
        G7               C
I can't go through that again

Chorus:
        Am            G
And you can't go back
   F                       C
To thinking it's still the same
         G7
It ain't easy to stand with your hat in your hand
         Am        G           F
When you can't get back in the game

Verse:
G
Maybe I was late in learning
      F                    C
I was one of the last to know
G
Too late to learn and nowhere to turn
    G7               C
And no place left to go

Verse:
G
No need to leave your number
       F                  C
'Cause no one returns the call
             G
When they've beaten you down, they keep you hangin' around
G7                    C
They make you feel so small

Chorus:
        Am            G
And you can't go back
   F                       C
To thinking it's still the same
         G7
It ain't easy to stand with your hat in your hand
         Am        G           F
When you can't get back in the game

         G7

When you can't get back in the game
