 Amsus2                 Amsus2 
 Solitude stands by the window
 Amsus2                  Amsus2          
 She turns her head as I walk in the room
       Amsus2                     Amsus2 
 I can see by her eyes she's been waiting
 Amsus2          Amsus2                     
 Standing in the slant of the late afternoon
         Am(9)                Am(9)        
 And she turns to me with her hand extended
     B5/A                 B5/A               Amsus2 Amsus2 
 Her palm is split with a flower with a flame

 Solitude stands in the doorway
 I'm struck once again by her black silhouette
 By her long cool stare and her silence
 I suddenly remember each time we've met
 And she turns to me with her hand extended
 Her palm is split with a flower with a flame
 12 bars of instrumental again 
 
 
 Amsus2               Amsus2        Amsus2/G      Amsus2/F 
  And she says, "I've come to set a twisted thing straight"
 Amsus2               Amsus2          Amsus2/G    Amsus2/F 
  And she says, "I've come to lighten this dark heart"
 C#m7              C#m7              Bsus4     Amsus2 
  And she takes my wrist, I feel her imprint of fear
 C#m7           C#m7             Bsus4       Amsus2 
  And I say, "I never thought of finding you here"
 
 And I turn to the crowd as they're watching
 They're sitting all together in the dark and the warm
 And I wanted to be in there among them
 I see how their eyes are gathered into one
 And she turns to me with her hand extended
 Her palm is split with a flower with a flame
 12 bars of instrumental again 
 
 
 And she says, "I've come to set a twisted thing straight"
 And she says, "I've come to lighten this dark heart"
 And she takes my wrist, I feel her imprint of fear
 And I say, "I never thought of finding you here"
 
 Solitude stands in the doorway
 I'm struck once again by her black silhouette
 By her long cool stare and her silence
 I suddenly remember each time we've met
 And she turns to me with her hand extended
 Her palm is split with a flower with a flame
