C
I don't have the reflection,
Of anybody checking their face,
C/B Am
In the shade of my glasses,
One way ticket on the fast train,
F G
And I'm solo all the way.
C
I could maybe read a novel,
To push away the trouble,
C/B Am
That sits in the pit of my tummy,
But I know that it will find me,
F G
When I finish the last page.
F C
An empty hand I wave goodbye,
F G
I feel a tickle in my eye.
C Am
No I'll never, sever any tie,
F
Tired of the journey,
G
No hand held in mine,
C Am
No I'll never, sever any tie,
F
Tired of the journey,
G
No hand held in mine.
C
Well I always feel it more,
On a day when there's a storm,
C/B Am
Or a raincloud, so dangerous and lonely,
No one ever told me,
F G
That the darkness is my foe.
C
And I'm looking out the window,
And losing both my dimples,
C/B Am
They enter the ends of my smile,
'Cause I am a thousand miles,
F G
From the place I need to go.
F C
An empty hand I wave goodbye,
F G
I feel a tickle in my eye.
C Am
No I'll never, sever any tie,
F
Tired of the journey,
G
No hand held in mine,
C Am
No I'll never, sever any tie,
F
Tired of the journey,
G
No hand held in mine.
