Intro: ----


Verse 1:
          
On the Chicago 
River after dark
             
We watch the city lights
tear the sky apart
    
The wind was blowing 
her hair around
       
As the scenery explodes
I'll tell you how
  
I fell into an old cliche
       
Always on the road 
only halfway sane
   
No hospital can fix
            
what I've become


Chorus 1:
     
I've trapped myself 
     
in a ring of fire
     
If I say I'm okay
I'm also a liar
            
The only way out is 
            
through the pain
 
(How am I gonna 
get through this?)


Interlude: Bm--


Verse 2:
  
I got so low 
that I get high
        
Just to sit and 
watch the miles go by
        
Now I'm cold and sweaty 
with a nauseous heart
        
I got a million addictions
wearing me down
  
I fell into an 
old cliche
       
Always on the road 
only halfway sane


(Repeat Chorus 1)


Chorus 2:
         
And as I write these words
   
my hands start to shake
     
With trouble sneaking 
in not a second too late
            
The only way out is 
            
through the pain 
  
Tomorrow I'll start again


Interlude: D-- x2


Bridge:
            
  And now I'm begging for help
  
I know I can't get up
                       /
Gotta face this one all alone
         
  And if I don't make it
  
Remember that I'll 

always be a part of you


(Rpeat Chorus 1 and Chorus 2)


Outro: D-- x4
