Intro:
Em F#m11 Cmaj7/G F#m11 x2

Verse:
Em           F#m11      Cmaj7/G   F#m11
I keep on running but I can’t get to the mountain
Em        F#m11      Cmaj7/G      F#m11
Behind me lie the years that I mis-spent
Em              F#m11     Cmaj7/G  F#m11
And I’ve been sitting like a flower in the fountain
       Em       F#m11     Cmaj7/G  F#m11
When all the love I’m gonna need is heaven sent

Pre-chorus:
   Asus2
Gonna try my best to get there
   Cmaj7/G
But I can’t afford the bus fare
Dsus2
 The storm that’s rolling over
    Asus2     Cmaj7/G
Man, it makes me wanna cry

Chorus:
Em     F#m11  Cmaj7/G         F#m11
When I was told the streets were paved with gold
        Em       F#m11      Cmaj7/G   F#m11
And it be known time is getting on when we were young
Em    F#m11    Cmaj7/G    F#m11
It’s alright, if you dance with me tonight
        Em      F#m11        Cmaj7/G   F#m11
We’ll fight the dying of the light and catch the sun

Break:
Em F#m11 Cmaj7/G F#m11 x2

Verse:
Em          F#m11          Cmaj7/G   F#m11
Woke up sleeping on a train that was bound for nowhere
Em           F#m11      Cmaj7/G      F#m11
The echoes that I could hear were all my own
Em          F#m11    Cmaj7/G         F#m11
The world had turned I’d become a stranger
  Em    F#m11      Cmaj7/G     F#m11
Got tired of watching all the flowers turn to stone

Pre-chorus II:
   Asus2
Gonna try my best to get there
   Cmaj7/G
But I can’t afford the bus fare
Dsus2
 The storm that’s rolling over
    Asus2     A9
Man, it makes me wanna cry
     Cmaj7/G
Feel the cold against my shoulder
    Dsus2
When it comes on in the winter
    Asus2
And it seems to last forever
    Cmaj7/G     F#m11     Em
And it makes me wanna, makes me wanna cry

Chorus:
      F#m11  Cmaj7/G         F#m11
When I was told the streets were paved with gold
        Em       F#m11      Cmaj7/G   F#m11
And it be known time is getting on when we were young
Em    F#m11    Cmaj7/G    F#m11
It’s alright, if you dance with me tonight
        Em      F#m11        Cmaj7/G   F#m11
We’ll fight the dying of the light and catch the sun
