Capo on 3rd fret
               
 
Intro: 
G C Em D 
G C Em D 
 
 
verse 1 
G                 
  A stranger to most, but everyone knows his name 
Em                           D 
  The city he wakes up in is never the same , never the same 
G                                                            Em 
  It gets hard to count the days with only stars to lead the way 
                            D 
And in his heart of gold he knows this has to change 
 
 
Pre-Chorus 
C 
Whoa-oh-oh 
Whoa-oh-oh-oh 
 
 
           G                    C 
So send me home, I have lost my way 
                 Em                            D 
And I don't even know if we'll make it through today 
             G                  C 
Take another step, take another breath 
                     Em 
I fill my lungs with deepest regrets 
    D                                 G 
And I don't know if I'll make it home again 
 
 
verse 2 
G               
  It gets a little harder day by day 
The loneliness is swallowing me 
Em                           D 
  I listen to the silence to hear what it might say, hear what it might say 
G 
Who will pick me up again? 
I need you here, I need a friend 
          Em                            
We'll get lost on time that's stolen 
   D 
So take my hand and send me home 
 
 
           G                    C 
So send me home, I have lost my way 
                 Em                            D 
And I don't even know if we'll make it through today 
             G                  C 
Take another step, take another breath 
                     Em 
I fill my lungs with deepest regrets 
    D                                  
And I don't know if I'll make it home again 
 
 
Bridge 
C                              D 
Take, take, take all that I've got, got, got 
      Em 
All I need is one more moment 
       D 
I just have to end this torment 
C                              D 
Take, take, take all that I've got 
          Em 
We'll get lost on time that's stolen 
        D 
Take my hand and lead me home again

           G                    C 
So send me home, I have lost my way 
                 Em                            D 
And I don't even know if we'll make it through today 
             G                  C 
Take another step, take another breath 
                     Em 
I fill my lungs with deepest regrets 
    D                                  
And I don't know if I'll make it home again
