[Intro: ]G C D G
G
There is no place for me
C
And no one to set me free
A D
There is no way to go
G
There is no place for me
C
Where it's warm, where I can be
A D
At least there is no place that I know
C D C G
Sometimes it's hard to see that you're running out of luck
A D
Right now it's my own life I don't know
F C
With everything I did I was the one who laughed
A# F2
Yes I was always tall and smiled
F C
Yes everything I did I thought would always last
A# F2
And I felt always strong inside
G
Now there's no place for me
C
And no one to set me free
A D
There is no way to go
G
There is no place for me
C
Where it's warm, where I can be
A D
At least there is no place that I know
C D C G
But I'm fine, I'm alright even though there's nothing left
A D
'Cos what it means I'm sure will show
F C
Somewhere along the way I lost the key for it
A# F2
But I was always true inside
F C
Somewhere inside myself I'm praying for a bit
A# F2
Of what was always open wide
A# F2
When I look around there's only broken glass I see
C A#
And everywhere I reach it's hurting me
A# F2
Looking back I find there was not much how it should be
C
It's slowly killing me!
D#
I got to go, kick all dust off my shoes
C A#
Take all that's good inside and turn it 'round
A# F2
'Cos with everything I did I was the one who laughed
D# A#
Yes I was always tall and smiled
A# F2
Somewhere inside myself I'm praying for a bit
D# A#
Of what was always open wide
