Intro
A C#m D x2
[Verse 1]
A C#m
I think of the days
D
I was thrilled by this road ahead
A C#m D
When the moment won over what was to come
F#m C#m D E
Not afraid of the distance but the distance afraid of me
F#m E D
Everytime I made it there I found nothing
D
The distance was gone
[Chorus]
A E
Now, I don't wanna fade
D C#m Bm
But I ain't gonna run
A E
I'm resting my head on these stones
F#m E D E
God, what have you done to you and me
A E D C#m Bm
I'm tired of scaring the future away
A E
No road ahead, the fire is dead
F#m E D
Father don't you see in front of you
D
Is what the chase has left of me
[Verse 2]
A C#m
If only they told me
D
What the kerbside was hiding away
A C#m D
Where the angels from high street didn't want to go
F#m C#m
And a heartbeat is forced
D E
To resign to the glory of a commonplace
F#m E
I am jaded
[Pre-chorus]
D
I don't wanna see what's becoming of me
D
Here's a bit! Then spare me this sight now…
D E
Cut it out I'm tired of the future myself
[Chorus]
A E
I don't wanna fade
D C#m Bm
But I ain't gonna run
A E
I'm resting my head on these stones
F#m E D E
God, what have you done to you and me
A E D C#m Bm
I'm tired of scaring the future away
A E
No road ahead, the fire is dead
F#m E D
Father don't you see in front of you
D
Is what's left of me
[Verse 3]
A# Dm Am
God and glory torn to pieces,
C Gm Dm
No no, it's just the spirit of the times
A# Dm Am
I'm drawn to a flame that won't release me
C
Release me!
Gm Dm
And I see a thousand who wait in line
[Solo]
A# Dm Am C Gm Dm
A# Dm Am C Gm D
[Chorus]
A E
I don't wanna face
D C#m Bm
what I ain't gonna stand
A E
I'm resting my head on these stones
F#m E D E
God, what have you done to you and me
A E D C#m Bm
I'm tired of scaring the future away
A E
The dark road ahead, the fire is dead
F#m E D
Father don't you see what you have made of me
