C G D Am C
Headin' in or headin' out Standing on the shore
G D Am
Pause a moment to reflect Which trip costs you more
C G D Am
Between the ever restless crowds And the silence of uour room
C G D C
Spend an hour in no man's land You'll be leaving soon
G D Am
Victims come and victims go There's always lots to spare
C G D Am
One victim lives the tragedy One victim stops to stare
C G D Am
And still another walks on by Pretending not to see
C G D Am
They're all out there in no man's land Cause it's the safest place to be
F Bb C F
But sanctuary never comes Without some kind of risk
Bb C D
Illusions without freedom Never quite add up to bliss
Bb F
The haunting and the haunted Play a game no one can win
Bb C D
The spirits come at midnight And by dawn they're gone again
G D Am
And so it seems our destiny To search and never rest
C G D Am
To ride that ever changing wave That never seems to crest
C G D Am
To shiver in the darkest night Afraid to make a stand
C G D Am C../
And then go back and do our time Out there in no man's land
