[Verse 1]
BI've been on hiding doEwn
I'll tell you everything I G#mcan
There's a healer inside of F#me
It's too deep for you to sF#ee
Band I can tell you one more tiEme
for my head is on the lG#mine
before I could go awF#ay.
[Bridge]
BOh I've been Ea stranger
G#msleeping with F#you in my bed
BI wish I could sEave you
G#mfrom the thoughts F#up in my head
[Chorus]
BOh I've been Ea stranger

I've been on hiding down

I'll tell you everything I can

for my head is on the line

before I could go away.
