A great song from OMD's 2010 album, "History Of Modern" Intro: C F Dm G C F Dm G C F If all the things you said were right C F How come you can't go home tonight G You're frightened on your own F Scared to be alone C In your head G Not at home Dm G And all the things you say and do Dm G Won't take the fear away from you C F And so you're once again tonight Dm Just praying for the light G When thoughts that haunt you so C Will slowly let you go F And once again the dread Dm Is burning in your head G You try but can't let go C This pain that kills you so C F Dm G C F Dm G C F If all the things you say were true C F Why can't you start this game anew G F It's nothing that was said, it's only in your head C G But the dread, oh God the dread Dm G And all the things you say and do Dm G Won't take the fear away from you C F And so we're once again tonight Dm Just praying for the light G When thoughts that haunt you so C Will slowly let you go F And once again the dread Dm Is burning in your head G You try but can't let go C This pain that kills you so C F And so we're once again tonight Dm Just praying for the light G When thoughts that haunt you so C Will slowly let you go F And once again the dread Dm Is burning in your head G You try but can't let go Am This pain that kills you so Coda: Am G F E (to fade)
