1 Verse:
F#m   E
I fell asleep last night
A               D
Counting troubles in my head
F#m     E
I had a dream that I
A                   D
Was on my own with no one else
F#m     E
And my hands were 
      A                     D
Full of the tears I was crying
F#m     E
How do I tell 
       A                    D
The shadows to get behind me?

Even through the cold nights
E                           A    D
Sun come up in no time

F#m       E                       A
Oh child, looking at tomorrow like
D                         F#m
Troubles gonna roll by

2 Verse:
F#m      E
I've been wondering
A                 D
Where my heart got lost
F#m     E
How do I get it back
A              D
To how it always was?
F#m       E
I've been asking myself
A                        D
Where did the fire go
F#m      E/G#
The fire I always kept
A                    D
Deep down in my bones
