Verse 1
=======

       Am                        
It's a cold and lonely message at 
     Am/F#
the end of a song
      G                         
It in-vaded hearts and minds but 
      Em
they couldn't get along
       Am                         
It can ask you to remember it can 
Am/F#
ask you for a dance
      G                         Em
So it seems that every song now is 
just one last chance

      Am                           
Oh re-demption love and departure I
 Am/F#
 think your work is done
G                          Em
Paris St. Petersburg don't need a 
tower of song
   Am                              
Es-cape's not worth the capture so 
Am/F#
walk that lonesome road
   G                      Em
No joy or earthly rapture nothing to
 take the load
