C               F
Like a deserted town in winter
    Bb                 C
The sun has gone and I linger on
    C                      F
The coloured lights on the pier
          Bb                   C
Have disappeared and the radio plays a sad song
                    F
Like a ship lost at sea I'm drowning
Bb                  C
As the world closes in
                       F
Strength where are you now
                Bb            C
Are you with me on this precipice

[Chorus]
G                      C    C                        
   You can stay if you want to
    F             C     C
But I must drift away
G                      C    C
   You can do what you want to
    F                    Bb         Bb
I'm leaving the ghosts behind

[Verse 2]
C5               F5
   Frozen like a memory
  Bb5               C5
1 close my eyes and then it's gone
                    F5
As night turns into day
             Bb5                 C5
The clock is waiting to have its say
                 F5
In a minute it's years
        Bb             C5
And the end is closing in
                       F5
Strength where are you now
                Bb5           C5
Are you with me on this precipice?
