No One There
View chords used in this chart
(Am C)
When all you want is truth
And nothing can be said
They lie in front of you, instead
I sense there’s something wrong
I’m blinded by the same old lousy truths
With different names
F
Everybody’s going for it
G
And there’s no one there
Am C
No one there
(Am G)
Despite this win or lose
Give more and more you get
So little room for regret
I choose to move alone
Making my mistakes
A point of view no one can take
F
Everybody’s going for it
G
And there’s no one there
Am
Everybody tells you otherwise
Dm
It’s only fair
F G
They’ll try to fix you up, try to fit you in
Am C
Try to make you proud, of what you’ve been
F
Who’s to say what’s good enough
G
Or when it’s safe to try?
Am
When truth lies inside
C
When truth lies inside
F
Everybody’s going for it
G
And there’s no one there
Am
Everybody tells you otherwise
Dm
It’s only fair
F
Everybody’s going for it
G
And there’s no one there
Am C
No one there
