Intro Chorus:
G                              C
You could meet somebody,You never know,
G                     C
From brief encounters,Habits grow,
G                     C
Into giant oak's that hide the sun,
G                  C
Life in the shadows ain't no fun.

Verse One:
G                                   C
It's easy getting up there,Never think of coming down,
         G                             
Not hard to say i want you,When you're floating on a cloud,
            G                            C
But you know that lonely feeling when nothings going right,
            G                           C
'Cause it's only the beginning of a cold and sleepless night.

Chorus One:
G                              C
You could meet somebody,You never know,
G                     C
From brief encounters,Habits grow,
G                     C
Into giant oak's that hide the sun, 
G                      C
Your only chance is to turn and run.

Lyricon Instrumental:

G   G   C   C   G   G   C   C   G   G   C   C   G   G   C   C   

Verse Two:
G                                      C
It's harder getting up there,And it's painful coming down,
     G                                C
And now you can't see clearly,Beneath the thunder cloud,
        G                             C
And the loneliness gets longer when nothing's going right,
     G                                     C
And things ain't getting any better with another sleepless night.

Chorus Two:
G                              C
You could meet somebody,You never know,
G                     C
From brief encounters,Habits grow,
G                     C
Into giant oak's that hide the sun,
G                      C
Your only chance is to turn and run.

Into giant oaks that hide the sun,
G                      C
Your only chance is to turn and run.
