F C Dm Bb
[Verse 1]
F
She is running
C Dm C Bb
A hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction
F C Dm
She is trying but the canyon's ever widening
C Bb
In the depths of her cold heart
C F Bb
So she sets out on another misadventure just to find
C F
She's another two years older
Bb
And she's three more steps behind
[Chorus 1]
F C
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
Dm C Bb
Or does anybody even know she's going down today?
F
Under the shadow of our steeple
C
With all the lost and lonely people
Dm C Bb
Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me
Gm Bb
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
[Verse 2]
F C Dm
She is yearning for shelter and affection
C Bb
That she never found at home
F C Dm
She is searching for a hero to ride in
C Bb
To ride in and save the day
C F
And in walks her prince charming
Bb
And he knows just what to say
C F
Momentary lapse of reason
Bb
And she gives herself away
[Chorus 1]
F C
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
Dm C Bb
Or does anybody even know she's going down today?
F
Under the shadow of our steeple
C
With all the lost and lonely people
Dm C Bb
Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me
Gm Bb
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
[Chorus 2]
Dm
If judgment looms under every steeple
Bb
If lofty glances from lofty people
F
Can't see past her scarlet letter
C
And we've never even met her
Dm
If judgment looms under every steeple
Bb
If lofty glances from lofty people
F
Can't see past her scarlet letter
C
And we've never even met her
[Chorus 1]
F C
Does anybody hear her? Does anybody see?
Dm C Bb
Or does anybody even know she's going down today?
F
Under the shadow of our steeple
C
With all the lost and lonely people
Dm C Bb
Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me...
[Chorus 2]
F C
Does anybody hear her? Does anybody see?
Dm C Bb
Or does anybody even know she's going down today?
F
Under the shadow of our steeple
C
With all the lost and lonely people
Dm C Bb
Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me
Gm Bb
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
[Outro]
F C Dm
He is running a hundred miles an hour
C Bb
In the wrong direction
