  			C                 Am       F             G7 
All around is the sound of tender hearts breaking 

C                          Am          F           G7 
And the a man who falls in love what a chance he’s taking 

C                  Am      F           G7 
For the battles of romance has wounded everyone 

C                             Am                 G7       C   C7 
They’d like to hide away from life but there’s nowhere to run 


F          G7           C        Am 
Nowhere to run from the tears of regret 

F          G7            C               G7 
Nowhere to hide from the pain they can’t forget 

     F           G7         C           Am 
They live in the shadows of rays of the sun 

       F                      G7                          C 
They’d like to hide away from life but there’s nowhere to run 


                    Am              F          G7 
How I’ve cried here inside with the soul in me burning 

C                     Am          F              G7 
For I know my love is gone but my heart keeps on yearning 

C                     Am             F            G7 
Will tomorrow heal my soul or has my hurting just begun 

C                          Am                 G7       C   C7 
I’d like to hide away from life but there’s nowhere to run 


F          G7           C        Am 
Nowhere to run from the haunting memories 

F          G7            C               G7 
Nowhere to hide from the mark she put on me 

     F            G7           C        Am 
I’ve wept for the lonely souls now I am one 

    F                      G7                          C 
I’d like to hide away from life but there’s nowhere to run 


    F                      G7                          C 
I’d like to hide away from life but there’s nowhere to run
