 Intro:     C     G     Em     D


       G The phone is off the hook and Jimmy's got a gun
                                                   Em        D Sherry's in the river and the river's gonna run again,    Yeah
         G So you don't know where to go, you don't know where to hide
                                                  Em     D Holding all your tears, keeping all your pain inside
            G With your back against the wall, heart falling from your hand
                                                         Em       D you throw it in the river, the river's gonna' hand it again,    Yeah

      C       G    Em    D But you are not alone
       C          G       Em    D When you're not safe at home


             C And you're running back

 Running back

 While you're on track
  G Looking for a home

 For a house to call your own
Em You need a phone

 You feel all alone
              D Don't know where to start

 While you're falling apart
          C And you need someone to hold

 Your hands are cold
      G You feel a little older
                     Em you need a shoulder
             D    C     G     Em     D but you're not alone


  G What they will believe and if you wanna change
                                                   Em    D How it's meant to be even if they think you're strange
          G Oh, you wanna live a life, you need to break away
                                                  Em     D Counting on your hands the days you have left today

      C       G    Em    D But you are not alone
       C          G       Em    D When you're not safe at home

 C    G    Em    D


             C And you're running back

 Running back

 While you're on track
  G Looking for a home

 For a house to call your own
Em You need a phone

 You feel all alone
              D Don't know where to start

 While you're falling apart
          C And you need someone to hold

 Your hands are cold
      G You feel a little older
                     Em you need a shoulder
             D    C      but you're not alone


 C    G    Em    D    x3


             C And you're running back

 Running back

 While you're on track
  G Looking for a home

 For a house to call your own
Em You need a phone

 You feel all alone
              D Don't know where to start

 While you're falling apart
          C And you need someone to hold

 Your hands are cold
      G You feel a little older
                     Em you need a shoulder
             D    C      but you're not alone
