Verse
Bm G A Bm
I ‘ve been layin’ low - livin’ in the shadows
Em7 Bm
Spendin’ time alone - conversations with the wall
Hangin’ on
G A Bm
I’m just tryin’ to matter
Em7 G A Bm
And I remain, tryin’ to make some sense of it all
G A Bm
I ‘ve been here before, I’m familiar with the pain
G A F#7
But I ain’t runnin’ no more, there’s one thing changed (-stop-)

Ain’t goin’ down this time,

Like an undertow - I feel the promis of the nighttime

But I’ve been down that road - and my search came to an end
I hit the motherload
G A Bm
Enough blues for a lifetime
Em7 G A Bm
Now I’m digging deep inside, tryin’ to find my way back again

You know you’ve entered the danger zone

When you look in the eyes and there’s no one home (-stop-)

Verse
Bm G A Bm
Deep in the night - I miss a woman’s touch
Em7 Bm
The fire burns strong - and I’m drawn to the flame
But I pay the price
G A Bm
When I get caught up in the heartbeat
Em7 G A Bm
And passion flows - un-res-trained
G A Bm
No one left to blame - I’m faced with the truth
G A F#7
And it’s all too plain - when there’s nothing left to lose (-stop-)
