E5                             
 
E5 
Headin' out on some uncharted path 
      A5 
You soon turn back 
    B5   B5        E5 
It happens time and time again 
                   A5             B5 B5 
You never seem to reach the end 
E5                               
Someone's out there on the street tonight 
       A5 
When things go wrong 
        B5 B5        E5 
He'll guarantee to make them right 
         A5             B5 B5 
If the price is right 
 

A5 
Every time I look you're fallin' fallin' 
E5                  E5 
Beaten by the wind 
A5                                     B5  B5 
Every time I turn around he's there again 
 

                        E5 
It's like a full force gale 
              C#5 
An American storm 
                             A5 
You're buried far beneath a mountain of cold 
                   B5 B5 
And you never get warm 
                     E5 
It's like a wall of mirrors 
                         C#5 
You charge 'em at full speed 
                             A5 
You cover up- You hear the shattering glass 
                B5 B5 
But you never bleed 
                    E5       A5   B5 B5 
You never feel the need 
 

E5        A5   B5 B5 
 
E5 
Everybody casts a certain light 
    A5 
A special gift 
       B5   B5         E5 
It's theirs to use for wrong or right 
          A5               B5 
When you face the night 
E5 
More and more we choose the easy way 
    A5 
We take no risks 
    B5  B5         E5 
We figure out which games to play 
            A5            B5 B5 
And how to make 'em pay 
 

A5 
Suddenly the pressure's fallin' fallin' 
E5                          E5 
Skies have all turned grey 
A5                                            B5  B5 
Suddenly the storm is heading straight your way 
 

                        E5 
It's like a full force gale 
                     C#5 
A top a mountain of cold 
                    A5 
You tell your story again and again 
                  B5 B5 
And it never gets old 
                    E5 
You face a wall of mirrors 
                         C#5 
You charge 'em at full speed 
                             A5 
You cover up- You hear the shattering glass 
                B5 B5   
But you never bleed 
 

                       E5 
You face a full force gale 
              C#5 
An American storm 
                             A5 
You're buried far beneath a mountain of cold 
                   B5                   B5 
And you never get warm- no, you never get warm 
                    E5 
You face a wall of mirrors 
                         C#5 
You charge 'em at full speed 
                             A5 
You cover up- You hear the shattering glass 
                B5 B5 
But you never bleed 
                    C5       A5 
You never feel the need 
                    E5       A5   B5 B5    
You never feel the need 
       E5              A5   B5 B5 
Never feel the need 
                E5       A5   B5 B5 
Never feel the need 
                    E5       A5   B5 B5    
You never feel the need 
E5       A5   B5        B5          E5 
Uuuuuh, uh, it's like a full force gale 
      A5   B5  B5      E5 
          An american storm 
      A5   B5  B5      E5 
          An american storm
