CLiving (x32010@1)in fear because the world is cold
     AmAnd (x02210@1)hope might be coming but you never know.
          CThere (x32010@1)are dead end streets around every turn.
      Am (x02210@1)                                       C(strum once)
And a road map too beaten up, torn, and burnt to read.

CDead (x32010@1)weight carried on for miles and miles.
    AmAnd (x02210@1)someone's telling jokes but you never smile,
       C (x32010@1)                               AmAs (x02210@1)the rows of tombstone houses pass you by.
    CAnd (x32010@1)I say, you say, we say change.
    AmBut (x02210@1)we all know just what they say.
    C (x32010@1)                                       AmThe (x02210@1)more things change the more they stay the same.
                   C(strum once)
They just stay the same.

       CIt's (x32010@1)a long cold winter in the dead of night.

    C (x32010@1)                                 AmAnd (x02210@1)we'll buy almost anything that they sell.
CDrop (x32010@1)dead headlights coming down the road.
          AmAnd (x02210@1)we're frozen blind

Believing in a heart of gold that will
C (x32010@1)                                 AmSwoop (x02210@1)right in and save us from our sins.

Save us from our sins.
