(Note the A can be played as A or Asus4)

A                                 D                      A
Beside me now are strangers to my eyes
A                                    D                      A
They might be getting crazy might be wise
E7
Were stranded either way
    F#m
In such a lonely place
       E7
I?m looking out for you
F#m                         G
Among the flies that wait in line for days on end
        E7                                            A
And nights so cold and always so intense

A                          D                      A
I try to reach the top most every day
A                         D                      A
In hope I turn my face up to the sky
         E7
The cover hangs so low
  F#m
I see no sign of life
E7
Nothing springs to mind
F#m                          G
Among the flies that wait in line for days on end
           E7                                      A
And nights so cold, always so intense

A                  G
And here we are
F                                                     D          E7
There?s a smile between us and its going on

A                           D                          A
You and me have always gotten through
A                   D                     A
Anyone can tell you that it?s true
        E7                              F#m
You feel it every time you drive away from home
         E7                                         F#m             G
The headlights hypnotize and they take you off towards the sea
                              E7                                                   A
Into the night you run away with thoughts you cannot hide

A             G
Vacant eyes
F                                                      D       E7
Can?t describe my hunger for your billowing arms

Run through verse chords

A         G    F
Mother I    cant help thinking of you
                 D    E7       A
Take this dull ache away
