Intro: 
Gm Eb Bb Db Cm F 
 
Verse 1: 
Bb                           F                Bb 
Go on and lie, I've heard it all before 
        Eb                                Bb                          F 
You have no shame ?is pain I feel, you've never known 
       Dm                    Eb                  Bb 
The rain outside is shifting in the wind 
       Db                      Cm         F 
The road is looking lonelier, alone again 
 
Verse 2: 
 
If love is real, then love goes on and on 
The words you said condemn you as the guilty one 
I guess you're not the kind you claim to be 
Always looking back to get your love for free 
 
 
                      Gm                    Eb                    Bb 
    Could you lie and say you love me just a little? 
    Dm                             Eb                            F 
    One more wrong will keep us one more night 
                Gm                       Dm 
    When quiet fades at the light of day 
      Db                        Cm                F 
    I? see the truth that's on your face again 
 
Solo: 
Bb F Bb Eb Bb F Dm Eb Bb Db Cm F 
 
Verse 3: 
When morning breaks, my heart won't understand 
I?e spent a lifetime raising houses on the sand 
The rain outside is shifting in the wind 
The road is looking lonelier, alone again 
 
Repeat Chorus 
 
Solo: 
Gm Eb Bb Db Cm F 
Bb
