G                       Am
Just like two freight trains in a late night storm 
           Em
Through a blinding rain 
         C
In the freezing cold 
         G
On the long way home 
        Am                   C
We're screaming through the dark 

      G               Am
We are cigarettes and gasoline 
   Em                      C
I caught on fire when you came to me 
        G                  Am            C
Like a deep red wine casts darkness on my dreams 

Am                              D
   You're the first thing on my mind 
Am                              D
   You're the first thing on my mind 

          G        Am     Em
Won't you save me from myself 
          G        Am     Em
Won't you save me from myself 
  
          G             C
Oh please open up your eyes 
          Am              D
Help me clear my clouded mind. 
          Am                  C           D
Won't you tell me that we're gonna be alright 
                 G
Please save me tonight 

       G                 Am               Em                C
There's photographs from far away of some people I thought I'd escaped 
          G         Am
But if you can't go home 
                  C
Well where can you go 

         G               Am                Em
Sometimes memories like cheap perfume can shake your head 
      C                  G              Am                C
And change your view so I choose to forget and sit right here with you 

Am                              D
   You're the first thing on my mind 
Am                              D
   You're the first thing on my mind 

          G        Am     Em
Won't you save me from myself 
          G        Am     Em
Won't you save me from myself 
  
          G             C
Oh please open up your eyes 
          Am              D
Help me clear my clouded mind. 
          Am                  C           D
Won't you tell me that we're gonna be alright 
                 G    Am   Em
Please save me tonight 
                 G    Am   Em
Please save me tonight 

Am                   G                    D
   Our time may run out so let's count on now 
              C          Em          Am
You can just keep those headlights on 
                   G                   D
The daylight will fade but don't turn away 

           G                       Am
Just like two freight trains in a late night storm 
            Em
Through a blinding rain 
          C
In the freezing cold 
        G
On the long way home 
         Am                 D
We're screaming through the dark 

           G       Am    Em
Won't you save me from myself 
           G       Am    Em
Won't you save me from myself 

          G             C
Oh please open up your eyes 
          Am              D
Help me clear my clouded mind. 
          Am                  C           D
Won't you tell me that we're gonna be alright 
                 G    Am   Em
Please save me tonight 
                 G    Am   Em
Please save me tonight 
                 G
Please save me tonight
