Always

Intro: G  C  D  G

            G
There is no place for me

    C
And no one to set me free

A                  D
There is no way to go

            G
There is no place for me

           C
Where it's warm, where I can be

A                                 D
At least there is no place that I know


               C       D               C              G
Sometimes it's hard to see that you're running out of luck

A                                  D
Right now it's my own life I don't know


     F                          C
With everything I did I was the one who laughed

          A#              F2
Yes I was always tall and smiled

    F                                C
Yes everything I did I thought would always last

           A#            F2
And I felt always strong inside

               G
Now there's no place for me

    C
And no one to set me free

A                  D
There is no way to go

            G
There is no place for me

           C
Where it's warm, where I can be

A                                 D
At least there is no place that I know

        C         D            C                      G
But I'm fine, I'm alright even though there's nothing left

A                                D
'Cos what it means I'm sure will show

    F                              C
Somewhere along the way I lost the key for it

          A#          F2
But I was always true inside

    F                               C
Somewhere inside myself I'm praying for a bit

            A#          F2
Of what was always open wide


A#                              F2
When I look around there's only broken glass I see

    C                               A#
And everywhere I reach it's hurting me

A#                                F2
Looking back I find there was not much how it should be

     C
It's slowly killing me!

         D#
I got to go, kick all dust off my shoes

C                                       A#
Take all that's good inside and turn it 'round


          A#                         F2
'Cos with everything I did I was the one who laughed

          D#              A#
Yes I was always tall and smiled

    A#                              F2
Somewhere inside myself I'm praying for a bit

            D#          A#
Of what was always open wide

Ok, I've worked this out for acoustic guitar and it works quite well with recording and for you
to play it by yourself.  The key change near the end makes things a bit difficult.  It's a bit
tough finding an octave for the A# so I've just left the same one in there.  You may want to 
play
just the high strings the second time maybe.  Other than that it's pretty straight forward.
It's a brilliant song and I hope you enjoy the transcription.  Vic
