 Intro Chorus 
 
 G                              C       
 You could meet somebody,You never know,
 G                     C           
 From brief encounters,Habits grow,
 G                     C            
 Into giant oak`s that hide the sun,
 G                  C             
 Life in the shadows ain`t no fun.
 
 Verse One 
 
 G                                   C                 
 It`s easy getting up there,Never think of coming down,
          G                                                 
 Not hard to say i want you,When you`re floating on a cloud,
             G                            C                 
 But you know that lonely feeling when nothings going right,
             G                           C                    
 `Cause it`s only the beginning of a cold and sleepless night.
 
 Chorus One 
 
 G                              C       
 You could meet somebody,You never know,
 G                     C           
 From brief encounters,Habits grow,
 G                     C            
 Into giant oak`s that hide the sun,
 G                      C            
 Your only chance is to turn and run.

 Verse Two 
 
 G                                      C                  
 It`s harder getting up there,And it`s painful coming down,
      G                                C                 
 And now you can`t see clearly,Beneath the thunder cloud,
         G                             C                   
 And the loneliness gets longer when nothing`s going right,
      G                                     C                     
 And things ain`t getting any better with another sleepless night.
 
 Chorus Two 
 
 G                              C       
 You could meet somebody,You never know,
 G                     C           
 From brief encounters,Habits grow,
 G                     C            
 Into giant oak`s that hide the sun,
 G                      C            
 Your only chance is to turn and run.
