It (G major) never came up
'til I (D major) came to the end of the line (A major)

Was just a (D major) spark in the

Verse 6
And the (D major) cold wind that blew
Through the (G major) hole in my heart
Made a (D major) fire for the very first (A major) time
From some (D major) branches of trust
And a (G major) kindling of faith
And that (D major) spark in the (A major) back of my mind (D major)
Verse 7
(D major) Drivin' like (G major) rain, or (E minor) (G major) (A major) (F sharp major) (B minor)
(G major) (D major) (A major) (D major) (G major) a (D major) (E minor) run
away (G major) (A major) train (G major)
(F sharp major) Flyin' (B minor) (G major) (D major) (A major) blind, (D major)
(G major) shot from the dark (D major) in the back (A major) of my (D major) (G major) (D major) (A major) mind
