Verse:
          G                C
You say I thought time was meant to take away the hurtin'
     G              C
As your lonely silhouette closes the curtain
      G           C
Back on the road destination uncertain
     G          C
So let’s get in this car and drive
     G          C
And this feeling I feel so strong
  G          C
So powerful it can't be wrong
     G              C
Now the whole frosted night is just a song

Verse:
     G                 C
Now the moon is splashed right over the street
     G             C
Like my tears on your thighs so pale
     G          C
It's just you and me in the sheets
     G                   C
And the whole the whole wide world is just a jail

Chorus 3:
   G D  C      G
When yo-ou're away from me

Yo-ou're away from me

Yo-ou're away from me
(Quiet)

  Turn out the light and the dark sucks on the embers of the fire

 My heart smoulders in the night
                   G  C  G
And these tumbling boulders of desire
