[Intro] Am G Am G [Verse]
     Am                      G
Last night I slept with a stranger

        Am                G
For the first time, since you've gone

Am                G               Am            G
Regretfully lying naked, I reflect on what I've done

    Am                    G          Am             G
Her leg still forced inbetween mine, sticking to my skin

Am                       G     Am                    G
Stroking my chest and my hair, head resting below my chin
[Chorus]
      F                  C
I'm a fox trapped in the headlights

           F                                  C
oh and I'm waiting, for the tyres to spin over me

    F    Am      G        F    Am    G
Cos everything I love has gone away

    F        Am      G        F      C
Oh, cos everything I love has gone away
[Instrumental] Am C Am C Am C Am C [Verse]
       Am                   G              Am                G
Oh the dark night is moving slower, oh and sleep wont rescue me

Am                    G           Am          G
Leaving me here to suffer, this shameful misery

     Am                  G                    Am                G
So I long for a taste of freedom, or at least freedom from this bed

Am                     G               Am                G
Silently picking up my clothes, I turn on my heels and I fled
[Chorus]
        F                                  C
And the dark of the street is no solace to me

         F                                              C
Oh and I don't believe my conscience, will ever be clear again

    F    Am      G        F    Am    G
Cos everything I love has gone away

    F        Am      G        F      C
Oh, cos everything I love has gone away
[Instrumental] C C F C F C F C F [Outro]
C                              F     G
You know in a year, it's gonna be better

C                             F      G
You know in a year, I'm gonna be happy

C                              F     G
You know in a year, it's gonna be better

C                             F      G
You know in a year, I'm gonna be happy

C                              F     G
You know in a year, it's gonna be better

C                             F      G
You know in a year, I'm gonna be happy

C                              F     G
You know in a year, it's gonna be better

C                             F      G
You know in a year, I'm gonna be happy
