[Intro]
Dm
[Verse 1]
Dm C Am
standing under an overpass in the rain
Bb
looks like we’ve been stranded once again
Dm C Am Bb
and there is not a lonelier sound than the wheels on the ground above
[Verse 2]
Dm C Am Bb
the cars pass by and so does a normal life
Dm C
and why are we left behind?
Am
as our dreams die
Bb Dm C Bb F Am
we got so much more in common with the corner dwellers
[Verse 3]
Dm C Am
sitting next to a brand new friend of mine, shares his fifth of jim with me,
Bb
got a twinkle in his eye
Dm C Am
beats the hell out of everyones cold stare, looking but not really there,
Bb
but we catch the unprepared, sometimes
[Verse 4]
Dm C Am Bb
It’s him and me, invisible ghosts of the street
Dm C Am
every grin we share is like a prayer committed to the song we sing
Bb
and it goes
[Outro]
Dm
give me hope
C
I’ve got nowhere else to go
Bb
I don’t know
F
if I can wake another day
Am
in the cold
on my own
Dm
give me hope
C
I’ve got nowhere else to go
Bb
I don’t know
F
if I can wake another day
Am
in the cold
Dm
give me hope
C
I’ve got nowhere else to go
Bb
I don’t know
F
if I can wake another day
Am
in the cold
on my own
Dm
give me hope
C
I’ve got nowhere else to go
Bb
I don’t know
F
if I can wake another day
Am
in the cold
on my own
Dm
give me hope
