A5        E5         D5       E5
When you were young you were protected
     A5         E5       D5        E5
When you were growing you were sheltered
     A5        E5            D5     E5
But when you reached your adult years
NC              A5
You were left alone
            D5      E5    A5
And you had no-one to rely on
D5      E5       A5
No one to care for you
  D5                                    E5            E5
A lost soul in search of some kind of shelter and protection

CHORUS:
        D5    E5      A5
  Now where do you run
    D5    E5      A5
  Where do you hide
            D5              E5
  When you need a hole to crawl in
    D5   E5      A5
  Where do you go?

I found that in our darkest hour
The young ones that I knew and loved well
Beckoned with the memory
Of their alluring spell
And so I gathered up my senses
Bade one and all godspeed
If my ways were what you desired then love is what you must need

(Chorus)

I tried to find a consolation
But realized that deep down inside
Consolation is but yet
My all despairing pride
And now I'm dark eyed and bewildered
My guts can feel the strain
My mouth is dry, my chest is tight, and my forehead's lined with the pain

(Chorus)
