C I got my plans from trembling hands FC I knew just what to do CAm Follow each step carefully FG And hope they pulled me through C My father ran to different lands FC And not a word we spoke CAm I was here to conquer fear FG And bring some glory home F There's a world of hate and sorrow Em out there standing in your way FG There's a load of compromise C before you die F And each time you step forward Em You get burned a little bit CGAm No longer know the way to say goodbye FDm7G Now I'm down here underneath your bedroom light FGC Rena please come out with me tonight.
C I look in through the window FC And I though I'd take my chance CAm I taught myself to play FG so I could be where people danced C No higher call than stars that fall FC I waited patiently CAm A thousand miles of pavement FG That became my destiny F You can wait a lonely lifetime Em Wondering when it's gonna come FGC You can while away the hours getting stoned F But one day you get lucky Em And you look in someone's eyes CGAm That tell you you don't have to be alone FDm7G Now I'm falling back just out of your sight FGC Rena please come out with me tonight
FC Oh now I know the way things go FC And what I put you through AmEm Cause when they try to get to me ( repeat twice) FG [:/ C / C / F / C / C,Em,Am / F / G /:] They get to me through you
FEm I know it's not the kind of hurt that's easily set right FGC And I know you got your reasons to stay inside FEm But nothing ever happens when it's left out on it's own CGAm You locked in there with just your wounded pride Dm7G I'm down here and I'm way too tired to fight FGAm Rena please come out with me tonight FGC..... Rena please come out with me tonight
