          C      G          F   G
you're a long walk, in a rainstorm
          C     G      F     G  
you're a cut that refuses to heal

C G F G x2

        C    G          F       G
you're dull ache, that i can't shake
you're a cold that's clogging up my head
or a broke watch, keeping time still
til you pull me in, pull me in, and i can't fight, yeah


(chorus)
         C       G
if the night is cold
           F      G
and you're feeling old
          C          G              F     G
and the morning cuts you like a knife
              C      G
and you're wearing thin
            F       G
feel you're giving in
        C        G            F        G 
in the darkest hour of the night, you find daylight

you're a stalled car in the desert
you're a song I can't get off my mind
in a dire strait with no help at all in sight
you come rushing in, rushing in
with a lifeline, yeah

(chorus)

(bridge)

Am                C
pull me closer to your breast 
Am                    G             F             G
i need you finally i confess... i'm drifting, i'm drifting
Am             C
i love you but i hate you too
Am                  G                  F            G
god only knows what i could do...i'm drifting, i'm drifting

C        G
come on, give me one reason
F           G
come on, find me in daylight

(chorus)

i'm not 100% sure about the bridge, but the rest of the song is just how kevin griffin
played it at the virgin megastore show. i'll update the tab if i find out definatively
how to play the bridge or if i can find out what jim payne plays in the background.
until then, have fun playing the chorus over and over again :)
