Capo II  
Intro: C5 D5 E5 C5

         G5
When the fire burns out here 
     D5
It's brighter than the city lights 
E5                     C5
Warmer than a heart of gold 
    G5                             D5
And dingos howl just to break the silence 
    E5                             C5
The sun comes up just to break the cold 
G5                          D5
Last night I woke with the stars looking back at me 
E5             C5
Swallowing the sky  
G5
I felt no anger 
D5
I felt no shame  
E5                  C5
I felt no reason to cry  
D5                      G5
If I'm not here in the morning 
D5                   G5
I'll cry a river of tears 
                        D5
I'll learn to live in a new town 
C5                       G5    D5
But my heart is staying here   
          G5
When it's quiet out here 
D5
A hundred miles away 
E5                            C5
You can hear the train on the line 
    G5                               D5
The whistle blows just to break the silence 
E5                       C5
I wave just to break the time 
G5                D5
I close my eyes, I think of running' water 
E5                   C5
I think of running' away 
        G5
But the fires burnt to ashes 
         D5
And it's darker than before 
    E5                    C5
But I can see as clear as day  
D5                      G5
If I'm not here in the morning 
D5                   G5
I'll cry a river of tears 
                        D5
I'll learn to live in a new town 
C5                       G5
But my heart is staying here  
                        D5
I'll learn to live in a new town 
C5                       G5
But my heart is staying here
