Brea[F#m]kin' it lightly[B] across y[D]our back and [F#m]mine.
Twis[F#m]tin' it slowly [B]as we rea[D]ch for the[E] line.
Yes [F#m]they're screamin' it softly n[B]ow so we[D] can't hear the[F#m] way.
And i[B]t's never too late. Never.[D]

I[A]f you know w[B]hy [D]we walk the b[E]roken road.

W[A]hat's it to [B]you?
Runn[F#m]in' on empty wi[B]th a long[D] way to go[F#m].
Noth[F#m]in' upsets me b[B]ut the fa[D]ct that I[E] know.
They[F#m]'re just hanging it over our [B]heads til[D]l the old eng[F#m]ine blows.
And i[B]ts never too late. Never.[D]
If we don[C#]'t take the time to create.
