Empty Hand

	  		
C                 
I don't have the reflection, 

Of anybody checking their face, 
                        C/B   Am 
In the shade of my glasses, 

One way ticket on the fast train, 
        F            G 
And I'm solo all the way. 

C 
I could maybe read a novel, 

To push away the trouble, 
                              C/B   Am 
That sits in the pit of my tummy, 
                         
But I know that it will find me, 
       F               G 
When I finish the last page. 


F                        C 
An empty hand I wave goodbye, 
F                     G 
I feel a tickle in my eye. 


        C                Am 
No I'll never, sever any tie, 
             F 
Tired of the journey, 
                G 
No hand held in mine, 
        C                Am 
No I'll never, sever any tie, 
             F 
Tired of the journey, 
                G 
No hand held in mine. 


C 
Well I always feel it more, 

On a day when there's a storm, 
                                     C/B   Am 
Or a raincloud, so dangerous and lonely, 
            
No one ever told me, 
         F              G 
That the darkness is my foe. 


C  
And I'm looking out the window, 

And losing both my dimples, 
                             C/B   Am 
They enter the ends of my smile, 
   
'Cause I am a thousand miles, 
         F               G 
From the place I need to go. 


F                        C 
An empty hand I wave goodbye, 
F                     G 
I feel a tickle in my eye. 


        C                Am 
No I'll never, sever any tie, 
             F 
Tired of the journey, 
                G 
No hand held in mine, 
        C                Am 
No I'll never, sever any tie, 
             F 
Tired of the journey, 
                G 
No hand held in mine.
