[D]
[C]
[G] When your world is full of [C] strangers, when your nights are dark and [Am] dangerous,
there's a place where you [C] can hang and just [D] let it go.
[G] When your eyes see only [C] sorrow, and your life seems somehow [Am] borrowed,
and those long [C] promised tomorrows never [D] show.
[Am] Well come [Bm] on down, we're [C] waiting for you.
[Am] We [C] got a special evening [D] planned.
[C] We're gonna [G] push the [D] boat out all year.
Might [C] get drowned on [G] dry land.
[D] [C]
[G]
[C]
[G] When the road looks long and [C] lonely, when the sky is [Am] overloaded,
when you feel [C] like you're the only one [D] in pain.
[G] When your smile gets weak and [C] weary, when you're [G] weirded out [Am] and weary,
and you long to be [C] somewhere they [Am] know your [D] name.

Yeah you can try to [A] make a stand.
[Am] But someday they [G] will find you shaking, [Em] holding up your hands.
[Am] Saying someone [D] take me back [Am] to some way of [D] living there. I [G] understand.
[D]
[C]
[G] When [D]
[C] [G]
your will to live is choking, when your spirit has [Am] been broken,
when the whole damn [C] thing seems token [D] and mundane.
[G] When the blackness all [C] around you crowds you out [Am] and hounds you,
picks you [G] up [C] and crowns you king of [D] the land.
[Am] Well come [Bm] on down, we're [C] waiting for you.
[Am] We [C] got a special [G] evening [D] planned.
[Em] We're gonna [G] push the boat [D] out all year.
Might [C] get drowned on [G] dry land.
