Gm                  F
I'm running away from a feeling
Cm                    F
Hiding my face in the sand
    Gm                 F
I'm scared to love and lose again
  Cm              F
I don't know if I can
  Gm                        F
I don't need the night to remind me
          Cm            F
Where the lonely people go

[Pre-chorus]

          Gm                    F
I've been living so long in the darkness
           Cm                  F
I know the cold embrace of the night
     Gm              F
When morning comes I close my eyes
           Cm               F
'Cause I'm blinded with the light
Gm                   F
Taking a chance on a feeling
        Cm                      F
Is like waiting for a flower to grow

[Pre-chorus]
Cm                D
So I stand at the crossroad, baby
Eb                     D
Wondering which way to go

Too many people
