-VERSE-

E                            D     A 

There's no-one watching over me tonight 

E                  D          A

and I'm afraid to turn out the lights,

E                         D        A 

If I close my eyes, it'll all go away 

E                        D         A

and I don't wanna see it end this way.





-INTRO-





-VERSE-

There was a time when truth and trust 

meant so much more to each of us

And all the dreams that we once had 

have seen the sun and left us feeling bad





-BRIDGE-

D                  E

Now the changing of the guard 

D                    E

has left us feeling so damn hard.  I'll 

F#m                          D

keep my distance, but I'm a little bit afraid.  Through the 

A                        B

years one thing hasn't changed

Yeah, yeah, yeah-hey 





-CHORUS- (Plays only a part of the intro in the solo.  Listen to the 

song)

E                    D         A

I would run through fields of fire,

E                  D      A 

I would crawl on broken glass,

E                     D      A

Just to swim in your sea of devotion,

E               D       A

just to have a second chance

  D          A 

That's all I ask





-VERSE-

Now feeling good is not good enough, 

I know they've changed but not that much 

Maybe time has left us beaten up, 

I never was willing to give enough





-BRIDGE- 

I ain't the hero who gets the girl, 

but if I had my chance to save the world 

I won't blow it now, I guess I'll understand 

This boy is becoming a man

Yeah, yeah, yeah-hey 





-CHORUS-

I would run through fields of fire, 

I would crawl on broken glass 

Just to swim in your sea of devotion, just to have a second chance 

That's all I ask





-BRIDGE-

Well, look at your 

D                         E

hands if you hear what I said. Can you count on your 

D                           E

fingers each of your real friends.  I know that I'm 

D                  E

lucky, I know I'm right. Fingers turn into fists, 

D                        E

we're here to take on the night. 

That's right





-SOLO- 

F - Eb - Bb (4 times)

Eb - Bb - Eb - Bb - Eb 



Eb                    F    

Now I'm staring at an open door, 

Eb                      F

we've had a lot, and I want much more.  You can 

Gm                             Eb  

keep all the money, and the streets that's painted gold if 

Bb                      C

someone gives me back my soul 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah , yeah, yeah, yeah-hey





-CHORUS-

F                    Eb        Bb                    

I would run through fields of fire,

F                 Eb      Bb 

I would crawl on broken glass 

F                     Eb     Bb

Just to swim in your sea of devotion, 

F               Eb      Bb

just to have a second chance 

F                    Eb        Bb       F   -  Eb - Bb

I would run through fields of fire, 

F                    Eb        Bb       F   -  Eb - Bb

I would run through fields of fire 





At the end there goes something like the intro, but a note higher:

  F           Eb    Bb    F          Eb  Bb

E----------------------|----------------I

B--1-3-4--1------1-----|--1-3-4--1------I

G-------------3-----2--|-------------3--I

D----------------------|----------------I

A----------------------|----------------I

E----------------------|----------------I





(Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, I would run 

All the way back home, I would run, 

Baby, come along)
