Intro 1
(C major) (C major) (C major) (C major)
Verse 1
(C major) Some people stay far away from the door
If there's a (D minor) chance of it opening up
(F major) They hear a voice in the hall (G major) outside
And hope that it just passes by (C major)
Some people live with the fear of a touch
And the anger (D minor) of having been a fool
(F major) They will not listen to anyone (G major)
So nobody tells them a lie (C major)
