F C
I think of the days

I was thrilled by this road ahead
F C Bb
When the moment won over what was to come
F C Bb
Not afraid of the distance but the distance afraid of me
D5 C5 Bb
Everytime I made it there I found nothing
The distance was gone

But I ain't gonna run

I'm resting my head on these stones
D5 C5 Bb C
God, what have you done to you and me

I'm tired of scaring the future away
F C
No road ahead, the fire is dead
D5 C5 Bb
Father don't you see in front of you
Is what the chase has left of me
F C
If only they told me
Bb
What the kerbside was hiding away
F C Bb
Where the angels from high street didn't want to go
F C
And a heartbeat is forced
Bb
To resign to the glory of a commonplace

I am jaded

Here's a bit! Then spare me this sight now…
