Doorway
View chords used in this chart
A, Em, G, G
Cold lips, cold hands,
Cold feet on the street
There's no shelter from
The heart's beat
Faster and faster,
The winds blow down from the north,
Sweeping these streets
Like ghosts on a march to war
A march to war
Outside, there's a silhouette,
Changing her name,
Changing her face
Every time I look away
We sway in the yellow light
With no more strength to fight
A Em G A
So many dreams that fade away,
A Em G A
So many lives we just can't save
Em Bm G
If you wanted this so bad,
G
Then why do we stand like we do
In the doorway?
A Em G
Come in, come in,
A Em G
Come in, come in,
[Refrão]G
Come in,
Bm Em A
I never wanted anything like I want you
G
Come in,
Bm Em A
I never wanted anything like I want you
A Em G A
Like I want you...
A Em G A
So many dreams that fade away,
A Em G A
So many lives we just can't save
Em Bm G
If you wanted this so bad,
G
Then why do we stand like we do
In the doorway?
A Em G A
If this is it, then why do I wait?
A Em G A
All tangled up in the strings of fate
Em Bm G
If I wanted this so bad,
G
Then why do I stand like I do?
Chorus
A, Em, G, A
Come in, come in, come in,
Come in, come in, come in,
Come in, come in, come in,
Come in, come in, come in
