At the top of the stairs, there's hundreds of people,

They try to find, find themselves an audience;

their deductions need applause.

Dbm                    Ab/C

The rich man stands in front of me,

Bdim                F#/A#

The poor man behind my back.

F#m/A                    Adim

They believe they can control the game,

Ab              Dbsus         Db

but the juggler holds another pack.



--------



F#m/C#                                   C#

I need someone to believe in, someone to trust.

F#m/C#                                   C#

I need someone to believe in, someone to trust.



G#m                F#                C#

I'd rather trust a countryman than a townman,

G#m      F#                                   C#

You can judge by his eyes, take a look if you can,

      Db                Ab

He'll smile through his guard,

  Db                Ab

Survi- val   trains hard.

G#m                F#                     C#

I'd rather trust a man who works with his hands,

G#m             F#                     C#

He looks at you once, you know he understands,

      Db       Ab

Don't need any shield,

            Db         Ab

When you're out in the field.

But down   here,

       C#m           G#m

I'm so alone with my fear,

          C#m          G#m

With everything that I hear.

C#m  G#m   B      C#m

And every single door



That I've walked through

Brings me     back, back      here again,

            Gb/Db       Ab

I've got to find my own way.



--------



Ab                 Ebsus/Ab

The priest and the magician,

Dbm                                               sus2 Dbm

Singing all the chants that they have ever heard;

Ab                             Ebsus/Ab

and they're all calling out my name,

Dbm                                    sus2 Dbm

Even academics, searching printed word.





Dbm                    Ab/C

My father to the left of me,

Bdim             F#/A#

My mother to the right,

F#m/A                    Adim

Like everyone else they're pointing

Ab                      Dbsus    Db

But nowhere feels quite right.



--------



F#m/C#                                   C#

I need someone to believe in, someone to trust.

F#m/C#                                   C#

I need someone to believe in, some     one to trust.



G#m                F#                              C#

I'd rather trust a man who doesn't shout what he's found,

G#m                F#                      C#

There's no need to sell if you're homeward bound.

   Db         Ab

If I choose a side,

         Db            Ab

He won't take me for a ride.



--------



C#m  G#m

Back inside

                C#m     G#m

This chamber of so many doors;

              C#m        G#m

I've nowhere, nowhere to hide.

C#m G#m      B         C#m

I'd give you all of my dreams



If you'd help me,

        G#m

Find a door

F#/A# B           F#/A# C#m  G#m

That doesn't lead me    back again

Gb/Bb   Ab

take me away.
