G     D                 Em
Every guy walks down my street

    C                 G
Any girl they care to meet

  Am                     Em         D
I know there's something out there

G    D             Em
Any time it seemed OK

VERSE 2

G     D             Em
In a pile I cry I sleep

In the day the same old heap

I know there's something out there

G       D                Em
After a while I get worn down

How much hope am I allowed

   Am                     Em          D
How much is there left out there.... Not much?

CHORUS OUTRO (see INTRO) And so it goes...
