A great song from OMD's 2010 album, "History Of Modern"
Intro: C F Dm G C F Dm G
If [C]all the things you said were [F]right
[C]How come you can't go home [F]tonight
[G]You're frightened on your own
[F]Scared to be alone
In your [C]head
Not at [G]home
[Dm]And all the things you say and [G]do
[Dm]Won't take the fear away from [G]you
And [C]so you're once again [F]tonight
Just praying for the [Dm]light
When thoughts that haunt you [G]so
Will slowly let you [C]go
And once again the [F]dread
Is burning in your [Dm]head
You try but can't let [G]go
This pain that kills you [C]so
[C] [F] [Dm] [G] [C] [F] [Dm] [G]
If [C]all the things you say were [F]true
[C]Why can't you start this game [F]anew
It's [G]nothing that was said, it's [F]only in your head
But the [C]dread, oh God the [G]dread
[Dm]And all the things you say and [G]do
[Dm]Won't take the fear away from [G]you
And [C]so we're once again [F]tonight
Just praying for the [Dm]light
When thoughts that haunt you [G]so
Will slowly let you [C]go
And once again the [F]dread
Is burning in your [Dm]head
You try but can't let [G]go
This pain that kills you [C]so
And [C]so we're once again [F]tonight
Just praying for the [Dm]light
When thoughts that haunt you [G]so
Will slowly let you [C]go
And once again the [F]dread
Is burning in your [Dm]head
You try but can't let [G]go
This pain that kills you [Am]so
Coda: Am G F E (to fade)
