             C
The road is pulling me into her open web
           G
And for a moment I escape and I forget
             F
The silhouettes behind the dust clouds call me
  Am
friend
          G
But even fools know here they're far
and few between

She has abandoned me on highways and desert plains
Of lonely creatures singing for the summer rain
And at the end of all your knees fall down to kneel
Yet something in you always yearns for someone real

Chorus:
C
Oh I need your love,
             F
I need your love
            Am
I need you now
C
Oh I need your love,
             F
I need your love
            Am
I need you now

She is my salvation in the dark
But at night with lips of honey calls
the devil’s horn
And I am a war of flesh and heart
that’s left undone
Between the person that I was and have become

Chorus - x2

C
'Cause there's no resting in my heart
There's no resting in my heart
                    F Am
There's no resting now
C
No, there's no resting in my heart
                   F
There's no resting in my heart
                   Am
There's no resting for the one you love
