[Verse 2]
Why do I think there's nobody [D]out there?
No [G]one who wants me and
[Em]no one w[C]ho knows.
[D]I wai[G]t in this place, no one can[C] see me.
After [D]all [G]this time could I [Em]be so
[C]alone?[D][G][C][D][G][C]
[D]I walk through this old[G]
town and still [C]feel lonely.
[D]The wind plays [G]sad songs
[Em]high in [C]the trees.
[D]The sun never [G]shines this
deep in [C]the forest.
Am [D]I in the darkn[G]ess
or is the [Em]darkness [C]in [F]me?
[C]I

[Verse 4]
tears [C]of a lover
[D]War[G]m as my blood, as wet[Em] as a ki[C]ss.
[D]But it's onl[G]y dark rain that
falls [C]in this old town.
Old [G]as my memory and as cold as [C]my lips.

[G][D][C][D][G][Em][C]

[Verse 6]
[D]Above this old town
From the top of the tower
I forget about living, I for[C]get about pain.
At [F]the [D]edge of [G]the platform,
At the edge of [C]a heartbeat,
[D]Abo[G]ve this old town I f[Em]lew awa[C]y.
