Ab/Eb
At the top of the stairs, there's hundreds of people,
Dbm/E
running around to all the doors.
Ab/Eb
They try to find, find themselves an audience;
Dbm/E
their deductions need applause.
Dbm/EAb/Eb
The rich man stands in front of me,
Abdim/DDb
The poor man behind my back.
DbmF#m/A
They believe they can control the game,
AbDbsus4Db
but the juggler holds another pack.

F#m7/DbDb
I need someone to believe in, someone to trust.
F#m7/DbDb
I need someone to believe in, someone to trust.
Abm7F#Db
I'd rather trust a countryman than a townman,
Abm7F#Db
You can judge by his eyes, take a look if you can,
DbDb/F#DbAb
He'll smile through his guard,
DbDb/F#DbAb
Survi- val trains hard.
Abm7F#Db
I'd rather trust a man who works with his hands,
Abm7F#Db
He looks at you once, you know he understands,
DbDb/F#DbAb
Don't need a- ny shield,
DbDb/F#DbAb
When you're out in the field.
(refrão)
DbmAbm/Eb
But down here,
DbmAbm/Eb
I'm so alone with my fear,
DbmAbm/Eb
With everything that I hear.
DbmB/EbDbm/E
And every single door
That I've walked through
AbmB/F#DbmAbm/Eb
Brings me back, back here again,
F#/DbAb/Eb
I've got to find my own way.
(verso 2)
Ab/Eb
The priest and the magician,
Dbm/E
Singing all the chants that they have ever heard;
Ab/Eb
and they're all calling out my name,
Dbm/E
Even academics, searching printed word.
Dbm/EAb/Eb
My father to the left of me,
Abdim/DDb
My mother to the right,
DbmF#m/A
Like everyone else they're pointing
AbDbsus4Db
But nowhere feels quite right.
(ponte)
F#m7/DbDb
I need someone to believe in, someone to trust.
F#m7/DbDb
I need someone to believe in, someone to trust.
Abm7F#Db
I'd rather trust a man who doesn't shout what he's found,
Abm7F#Db
There's no need to sell if you're homeward bound.
DbDb/F#DbAb
If I choose a side,
DbDb/F#DbAb
He won't take me for a ride.
(refrão)
DbmAbm/Eb
Back inside
DbmAbm/Eb
This chamber of so many doors;
DbmAbm/Eb
I've nowhere, nowhere to hide.
DbmB/EbDbm/E
I'd give you all of my dreams
If you'd help me,
Abm
Find a door
B/F#DbmAbm/Eb
That doesn't lead me back again
F#/DbAb/Eb
- take me away.
