G
He could've tuned in' tuned in but he tuned out

A bad time, nothing could save him
(Riff)

Alone in a corridor, waiting, locked out
D
He got up outta there, ran for hundreds of miles
(Riff)

He made it to the ocean, had a smoke in a tree

The wind rose up, set him down on his knee
(Riff x 2)

A wave came crashing like a fist to the jaw

Delivered him wings, "Hey, look at him now"

Arms wide open with the see as his floor

Oh, power, oh

His key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere

And he still gives his love, he just gives it away
