Rick Springfield – The White Room (Guitar)

D                    Bm
I can see her at her windows watching,

D             Bm
locked away inside her skin,

D                   Bm              D
I can see her but I can't get to her, she won't come out,

              Bm
and she won't let me into

    G                 A
The white room (she's living in)

G                    A
Lying alone til she comes undone

       Em              D/F#          G
In the white room, she burns for the real thing.

    A
But it won't come.

D                  Bm
In her head is the same obsession

D                       Bm                   D
and all the bottles and pills won't heal her heart.

              Bm
She heard his last confession

D                   Bm
and every word just tears her apart

       G                   A
In the white room (locked away)

G                   A
doing time till her time is done

       Em                    D/F#        G
In the white room there's so much to say

        A
but the words won't come.

B
Come back to the land of the living,

E              F#
when you gonna break the chain,

B
there's so much too much that you're leaving

E                      F#
and you're never gonna stop the rain

       G          A
In the white room.

G                         A
waiting for the call that never comes

       G                A
in the white room, she awaits.

D                       Bm
Look at something long enough you'll find,

D                          Bm
that the splinters and the cracks begin to show,

D           Bm                     D
I'll be the first in line when the walls start falling

    Bm
and she lets go of

    G                A
The white room (it's late)

G                 A
living alone only makes you numb

       Em             D/F#          G
In the white room she burns for the real thing

    A
but it won't come

B
Come back to the land of the living,

E              F#
when you gonna break the chain,

B
there's so much too much that you're leaving

E                      F#
and you're never gonna stop the rain

       G                   A       G
In the white room (she's living in) I think its time

     A
that you're time is done,

       G              A     B
In the white room she burns

       G                 A
In the white room (it's late)

G                    A
lying alone till she comes undone

       G                A    D Bm
In the white room she awaits

             D    Bm D Bm
In the white room

             D    Bm D Bm
In the white room

             D    Bm D Bm
In the white room
