Verse: 

F#                   C#        D#m 
There's a rhythm in rush these days 
           D#m                      C#            B 
Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade 
F#                      C#         D#m 
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams 
      D#m                      C#         B 
In a world gone shallow, in a world gone lean 


F#                         C#          D#m 
Sometimes there's things a man cannot know 
D#m                        C#           B 
Gears won't turn and the leaves won't grow 
         F#                   C#    D#m 
There's no place to run and no gasoline 
D#m                        C#           B 
Engine won't turn and the train won't leave 
D#m                         C#          B 
Engines won't turn and the train won't leave 



F#       C#       D#m      B 
I will stay with you tonight 
C#                      D#m       B 
Hold you close 'til the morning light 
         F#     C#      D#m      B 
In the morning watch a new day rise 
      C#           D#m        B 
We'll do whatever just to stay alive 
       C#          D#m        B 
We'll do whatever just to stay alive 


F#        C#                     D#m   
Well the way I feel is the way I write 
   C#                            D#m      B 
It isn't like the thoughts of the man who lies 
   F#                     C#      D#m 
There is a truth and it's on our side 

D#m              C#        B 
Dawn is coming, open your eyes 
C#                       D#m        B 
Look into the sun as the new day’s rise 


    F#      C#      D#m    B 
And I will wait for you tonight 
 D#m                          C#       B 
You're here forever and you're by my side 
    F#      C#     D#m     B 
I've been waiting all my life 
    C#                     D#m      B 
To feel your heart as it's keeping time 
       C#                 D#m    B 
We'll do whatever just to stay alive 

   F#            C#         B 
Dawn is coming, open your eyes 
   F#            C#         B 
Dawn is coming, open your eyes 
   F#            C#         B 
Dawn is coming, open your eyes 
   F#            C#         B 
Dawn is coming, open your eyes 
   F#            C#         B 
Look into the sun as the new day’s rise 


F#                    C#       D#m 
There's a rhythm in rush these days 
           D#m                       C#           B 
Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade 
F#                     C#           D#m 
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams 
      D#m                      C#          B 
In a world gone shallow, in a world gone lean 


     F#                        C#    D#m 
But there is a truth and it's on our side 
D#m              C#       B 
Dawn is coming open your eyes 
 D#m                   C#         B 
Look into the sun as a new day’s rise
