C#m B G#m
You're the one who's nearly breaking my heart,
C#m B
Had your chance, you just threw it all away.
C#m B G#m
Living in a world that you could never be a part of,
G#m E
And now's a time to walk away.
B
[You can't stay, no you can't stay.]
C#m A B E
[You're no loser, there's still time to ride that train, and you]
B
[must be on your way tonight.]
C#m A B
[Thinking you right through you're a Man In The Rain.]
C#m B G#m
What's the use in hanging round these walls,
C#m B
Lamps are burning but nobody's at home.
C#m B G#m
There's a new day dawning as a cold rain falls,
C#m
And now's the time to walk alone.
