E
Headin' out on some uncharted path
A
You soon turn back
Bsus4 B E
It happens time and time again
A Bsus4 B
You never seem to reach the end
E
Someone's out there on the street tonight
A
When things go wrong
Bsus4 B E
He'll guarantee to make them right
A Bsus4 B
If the price is right
A
Every time I look you're fallin' fallin'
E E7
Beaten by the wind
A Bsus4 B
Every time I turn around he's there again
E
It's like a full force gale
C#m
An American storm
A
You're buried far beneath a mountain of cold
Bsus4 B
And you never get warm
E
It's like a wall of mirrors
[Refrão]
C#m
You charge 'em at full speed
A
You cover up- You hear the shattering glass
Bsus4 B
But you never bleed
[Próxima Parte]
E A Bsus4 B
You never feel the need
E A Bsus4 B E
Everybody casts a certain light
A
A special gift
Bsus4 B E
It's theirs to use for wrong or right
A B
When you face the night
E
More and more we choose the easy way
A
We take no risks
Bsus4 B E
We figure out which games to play
A Bsus4 B
And how to make 'em pay
A
Suddenly the pressure's fallin' fallin'
E E7
Skies have all turned grey
A Bsus4 B
Suddenly the storm is heading straight your way
E
It's like a full force gale
C#m
A top a mountain of cold
A
You tell your story again and again
Bsus4 B
And it never gets old
E
You face a wall of mirrors
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
E
You face a full force gale
C#m
An American storm
A
You're buried far beneath a mountain of cold
Bsus4 B
And you never get warm- no, you never get warm
E
You face a wall of mirrors
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
C Am
You never feel the need
E A Bsus4 B
You never feel the need
E A Bsus4 B
Never feel the need
E A Bsus4 B
Never feel the need
E A Bsus4 B
You never feel the need
E A Bsus4 B E
Uuuuuh, uh, it's like a full force gale
A Bsus4 B E
An american storm
A Bsus4 B E
An american storm
A Bsus4 B E
