VERSE ONE

Ab5
At the top of the stairs, there's hundreds of people,
Db5
running around to all the doors.
Ab5
They try to find, find themselves an audience;
Db5
their deductions need applause.

Db5                  Ab5
The rich man stands in front of me,
Ab5                Db5
The poor man behind my back.
Db5                    F#5
They believe they can control the game,
Ab5              Db5         Db5
but the juggler holds another pack.

BRIDGE

F#5                                  Db5
I need someone to believe in, someone to trust.
F#5                                  Db5
I need someone to believe in, someone to trust.

Ab5               F#5                Db5
I'd rather trust a countryman than a townman,
Ab5     F#5                                   Db5
You can judge by his eyes, take a look if you can,
      Db5    Db5   Db5  Ab5
He'll smile through his guard,
  Db5   Db5 Db5     Ab5
Survi- val   trains hard.
Ab5               F#5                     Db5
I'd rather trust a man who works with his hands,
Ab5               F#5                     Db5
He looks at you once, you know he understands,
      Db5   Db5 Db5 Ab5
Don't need a-    ny shield,
            Db5  Db5 Db5  Ab5
When you're out in    the field.

--------
CHORUS

    Db5    Ab5
But down   here,
       Db5           Ab5
I'm so alone with my fear,
          Db5          Ab5
With everything that I hear.
    Db5   B5   Db5
And every single door

That I've walked through

Ab5       B5       Db5     Ab5
Brings me back, back here again,
            F#5       Ab5
I've got to find my own way.

--------
VERSE TWO

Ab5
The priest and the magician,
Db5
Singing all the chants that they have ever heard;
Ab5
and they're all calling out my name,
Db5
Even academics, searching printed word.


Db5                  Ab5
My father to the left of me,
Ab5                Db5
My mother to the right,
Db5                    F#5
Like everyone else they're pointing
Ab5                      Db5    Db5
But nowhere feels quite right.

--------
BRIDGE

F#5                                  Db5
I need someone to believe in, someone to trust.
F#5                                  Db5
I need someone to believe in, someone to trust.

Ab5               F#5                              Db5
I'd rather trust a man who doesn't shout what he's found,
Ab5               F#5                      Db5
There's no need to sell if you're homeward bound.
   Db5    Db5  Db5   Ab5
If I     choose a    side,
         Db5   Db5 Db5    Ab5
He won't take me    for a ride.

--------
CHORUS

Db5  Ab5
Back inside
                Db5     Ab5
This chamber of so many doors;
              Db5        Ab5
I've nowhere, nowhere to hide.
    Db5      B5      Db5
I'd give you all of my dreams

If you'd help me,

        Ab5
Find a door
     B5            Db5  Ab5
That doesn't lead me back again
F#5      Ab5
- take me away.

END.
