F5               A5                        G5 
Stevie said now don't look round they're watching us
F5           A5             G5
Two girls in the corner of that dodgy club
F5              A5              G5
And the grey eyes, the storm that I've come to know and wish for
F5              A5            G5
Before I caught a breath Well she was standing there
F5                     A5            G5
We walked the streets of our town just talking
F5                         A5                   G5
And the dawn broke grey and freezing through the deserted blocks
F5                       A5                G5
Just when your life is stale and there's reason there for everything
F5                  A5          G5
Something comes to kick you up inside

Chorus:
 D5          C5            G5
Eleven sweet years and no nearer home
D5                C5                  G5
A hundred thousands miles through this battle zone
D5          C5          G5                G5
Still high on the wire above the hollow darkness
F5           F5
Trying not to look down...


F5            A5              G5
No Rest for the wicked is still how it goes
F5              A5         G5
Twisted up and turning my bed alone
F5          A5           G5
And separation pains like a blunted amputation
F5               A5           G5           
Pushing endless coins in the telephone


Bb5          C5                                   Bb5
So rest in these open arms and cry
C5                                    Bb5  
 Until they come for you and tell
D5                                  C5
And tell me everything that you've ever felt
C5                       G5
Tell me everything you want to see


F5             A5                G5     
Forever running even when we are standing still
F5             A5               G5
Driven on and fired up as the whirlwinds blow
F5               A5                G5                 G5
And shouting out inside I'm proud of you, I'm proud of you
F5                        A5             G5
Ten thousand footsteps echo down the Brixton Road
