    Em (022000@1)   (C/G)            (G)
I'm never gonna run away
    C/G (3x555x@1)            GI'm (320003@1)never gonna run away
  D (xx0232@1)   C (x32010@1)      G (320003@1)      Em (022000@1)        GI (320003@1)never knew the way when I lived without you

I'm never gonna run away
    C/G (3x555x@1)            GI'm (320003@1)never gonna run away

D (xx0232@1)                   C (x32010@1)       GI (320003@1)came to you when no one could hear me
    C (x32010@1)      G (320003@1)      Am (x02210@1)   D (xx0232@1)   (C)      (G)      (Em)   (D) (D/C) (D/B) (D/A)
I'm sick and weary of being alone
D (xx0232@1)               C (x32010@1)    GEmpty (320003@1)streets and hungry faces
    C (x32010@1)        G (320003@1)               Am (x02210@1)    G (320003@1)   (C)        (G)               (Em)    (C) (C/B)

G (320003@1)             Em(Am) (022000@1)           (D)
A heart needs a home

D (xx0232@1)Some people say that I should forget you
I'm never gonna be a fool
I'm never gonna be a fool
A better life, they say, if I'd never met you
I'm never gonna be a fool
I'm never gonna be a fool

Tongues talk fire and eyes cry rivers
Indian givers, hearts of stone
Paper ships and painted faces
The world's no place when you're on your own
A heart needs a home
