==Intro/Verses==
    Dm                      C                           G7
The snow was falling on his shoulders by the side of the road...
==Chorus==
  Gm                               F           C
A million lonely people with their head in the sand
Gm                                     F          C
Trying to make some sense of what they don't understand
Gm                          F           C     Bb
Waiting on somebody just to give them a hand, heyyyyyyy

==Final Verse==
    Dm                      G7
The snow was falling on his shoulders by the side of the road
       Bb                              A
And he watched as the lights came on below
Ends abruptly on A
