[E] [Bm]
[A] [E] [F#m]
[A] [E] [Bm]
[A] [E] [F#m]
[A] That token drag on [E] your [Bm] cigarette,
[A] that well-known face in [B] the fire,
[D]
[A] It could be someone [E] you can't [F#m] forget,
[A] someone you've learned to [Em] [D] admire.
[A] [E] [F#m]
[A] And it's strange [Bm] how the [F#m] feeling [F#] grows,
[Bm]
[A] All [Bm] changed down the [F#m] river [A] of fear [Bm] goes.
[A] [F#] [D]
[A] You're treading water, [D]
[A] you've made some promises you [Bm] can't keep,
[A] You throw yourself [F#] against
[A] [B] [F#m] the wall,
[E] So [F#] strange [A] how the feeling grows,
All [B] changed down the river of fear [A] [F#m] goes.
[A]
[F#m] [D] [A]
[Bm]
[F#m] [A] Look to see who goes [Bm] there,
[A] It's just the stranger [F#] he's come to late,
[A] A thief to find a [F#m] car that's so bare,
It's so
[B] strange when the [A] feeling [B] grows,
[A] All [F#]
changed down the river [A] of fear [F#m] goes.
[E] [F#] When the [A] feeling [F#] grows,
All [A] changed down the river [A] of fear goes.
