       F#m
Took a ride
       D
To the end of the line
      Bm7         E
Where no one ever goes.
      F#m     D
Ended up on a broken train
     Bm7      E
With nobody I know.
        Bm7
But the pain
        Esus4         E
And the longing’s the same,
            F#m    F#madd9 F#m7
When you’re dying.
        Bm7
Now I’m lost,
          Esus4       E
And I’m screaming for help, alone.

Chorus:
       F#m          Bm7 Bm9 E
     Relax, take it easy,
                  C#m          C#m7
     For there is nothing that we can do.
       F#m          Bm7 Bm9 E
     Relax, take it easy,
                 A           E/G#  F#m
     Blame it on me or blame it on you.

                  F#m
   It’s as if I’m scared.
                  Bm7
   It’s as if I’m terrified.
                  E
   It’s as if I scared.
                  C#m          C#m7
   It’s as if I’m playing with fire.
   F#m
   Scared.
                   D
   It’s as if I’m terrified.
           Bm7
   Are you scared?
          Esus4         E
   Are we playing with fire?

  F#m
Relax.
D                  Bm7            E
There is an answer to the darkest times.
     F#m       D
It’s clear, we don’t understand it,
        Bm7              E
But the last thing on my mind
      Bm7
Is to leave you.
    Esus4
I believe that we’re
E         F#m     F#madd9 F#m7
In this together.
      Bm7
Don’t scream,
          Esus4   E
There are so many roads left.
