| I'm 'round the | corner from anything that's | real |
| E | A | |
| I'm across the r | oad from hope |
| G#m | |
| I'm under a | bridge in a rip tide |
| F#m | E | |
| That's t | aken everything I call my | own |
| A | E | |
| One step closer to kno | wing |

| I'm on an | island at a busy inter | section |
| E | A | |
| I can't go | forward, I can't turn | back |
| G#m | |
| Can't see the | future |
| F#m | |
| It's getting away from | me |
| E | |
| I just watch the tail lights | glowing |
| A | E | |
| One step closer to kno | wing |

| I'm hanging out to | dry |
| A | |
| With my old clothes |
| E | A | |
| Finger still | red with the prick of an old | rose |
| G#m | |
| Well the heart that | hurts |
| F#m | |
| Is a heart that beats |
| E | |
| Can you hear the drummer | slowing? |
