Walk into the lightning  (A minor)

love  (F major) gets so slow
Am 
We stopped  (A minor) making love in the hours of daylight,
F 
 (F major) too many moons ago

Am 
 (A minor) How can you have no faith in
F 
 (F major) this your own home town?
Am 
 (A minor) Can't you practice a little discretion,

 (F major) play the whole thing down?  (A minor) 
F 
And since you got so blinkered to the  (F major) highs
Am 
and lows of a hopeless thing  (A minor) 
Maybe you can take this heart
F 
 (F major) and pass it on to him
