 B
I'm sitting here inside the strangest place
                   
 Ebm
And Time is racing by

 B
I've been way out here for a month or more
                      
 Ebm
Tonight I'm wondering why

 Abm                       
 E
You try to understand the things that I feel

 Abm                         
 E         
 F#
Maybe this time I'll find a way to explain it

 B                     
 F#             
 B
And there was a dream deep inside my head

 F#                         
 Abm
It only seemed like it's breaking the thread
     
 E
That holds me to you

 B                    
 E
Still you have never wanted to change me

 B
But darlin I know

 F#                  
 Abm      
 E
Thou we're far apart    the signal is strong

 B                         
 E               
 B
This helpless heart will always belong to you

 E       
 B   
 E          
 B
Only to you no one but you

 B
This power takes me from the place I belong
                              
 Ebm
To where only the strong get through

 B
You've got to keep on believing or you'll lose your way
                      
 Ebm
It slips right out on you

 Abm                                  
 E
Though there are days the light can flicker or fade

 Abm                          
 E       
 F#
Here in this place tonight a fire is burning
      
 B
Cause there was a dream

 F#             
 B
Deep inside my head

 F#                         
 Abm
It only seemed like it's breaking the thread
     
 E
That holds me to you

 B                    
 E
Still you have never wanted to change me

 B
But darlin I know

 F#                  
 Abm      
 E
Thou we're far apart    the signal is strong

 B                         
 E               
 Abm
This helpless heart will always belong to you

 E       
 B   
 E          
 B
Only to you no one but you
