[Primeira Parte]

          Am     G      F        C
Well you step outside, digging a hole
    Am          G        F          Am
The closer you get, the further you go
         Am         G         F      C
And it’s never been easier to disappear
       Am         G       F        Am
You’re telling to me, you have no fear
 
[Refrão]

            Am      G       C
And it’s a one way road you say
   Am          G    C
As soon as you run away
 Am         G              Am     F
There’s no turning back to eternity
       F        G        C   Am
It’s a one way road you see

[Segunda Parte]

            Am        G            F           C
Then you’re making it back to your old folk’s place
          Am       G              F     Am
It’s been several years since you ran away
        Am      G        F           C
You’ve seen no changes, standing outside
   Am       G           F      Am
Behind the walls, there is no light
 
[Refrão]

            Am      G       C
And it’s a one way road you say
   Am          G    C
As soon as you run away
 Am         G              Am     F
There’s no turning back to eternity
       F        G        C  Am
It’s a one way road you see

[Terceira Parte]

 Am            G             F        C
Spending your time, catching up like down
    Am       G            F        Am
You used to have a lot of people around
    Am          G            F                 C
Repeating yourself and the things that you’ve learned
         Am            G            F          C
From the day you were part of this busy-man’s world
  
[Refrão]

            Am      G       C
And it’s a one way road you say
   Am          G    C
As soon as you run away
 Am         G              Am     F
There’s no turning back to eternity
       F        G        C   Am
It’s a one way road you see
