In a Amtime
Where the Emsun descends alAmone,
I ran a lCong, long wGay from hAmome
To find a hEmeart that's made of stDone.

I just nEmeed a little tiAmme
To get your fCace right Gout of my mAmind,
To see the wEmorld through different eyDes.
[Chorus]
  CEvery time I Fsee you, oh I Amtry to Ghide away,
     C(  Dm  Em)                F           G  C  
  But when we  meet it seems I can't let go.
  CEvery time you lFeave the room
I fAmeel I'm fGading like a fFlower...G  
[Verse 3]
Tell me Amwhy
When I sEmcream there's no repAmly,
When I rCeach out there's Gnothing to fAmind,
When I sEmleep I break down and crDy,
DCry, yeah.
[Chorus]
  CEvery time I Fsee you, oh I Amtry to Ghide away,

[Verse 1]

In a time

Em Am

Where the sun descends alone,

C G Am

I ran a long, long way from home

Em D

To find a heart that's made of stone.

[Verse 2]

I will try,

Em Am

I just need a little time

C G Am

To get your face right out of my mind,

Em D

To see the world through different eyes.

[Chorus]

C F Am G

Every time I see you, oh I try to hide away,

C Dm Em F G C

( )

But when we meet it seems I can't let go.

C F

Every time you leave the room

Am G F G

I feel I'm fading like a flower...

[Verse 3]

Tell me why

Em Am

When I scream there's no reply,

C G Am

When I reach out there's nothing to find,

Em D

When I sleep I break down and cry,

Cry, yeah.

[Chorus]

C F Am G

Every time I see you, oh I try to hide away,

C Dm Em F G C

( )

But when we meet it seems I can't let go.

C F

Every time you leave the room

Am G F G

I feel I'm fading like a flower...

[Bridge]

Am G C D

Fading like a rose,

Am G C D

Fading like a rose,

Am G C D

Beaten by the storm,

Talking to myself,

Getting washed by the rain,

It's such a cold, cold town.

C G Am

Oh, it's such a cold, cold town.
