verse: 

D                     A 
is there a rhyme or reason why 
D                A 
i can't keep my head on the pillow at night 
D            A                        E 
is there no vice that can cure this pain 
           D                    A 
when your best ain't enough to get you by 
           D                         A 
fighting tooth and nail 'till your blood runs dry 
      F#m                 Bm                      E 
you wanna stay up but can't no matter what you try 



[Refrão]

         F#m               D 
can you take me out of my hell tonight 
            A                   E 
so i don't have to feel the way i do 
       F#m                    D 
but i feel something in the air tonight 
           Bm             D          E 
i hope someday i'm gonna make it through,  
                  D  A  E 
make it through 


Verse:

D                     A 
i'm just an average joe working the moonlight 
D                          A 
tryin' to bring home the bread so we can eat tonight 
D                        A 
there's not a thing that i wouldn't do 
         E 
to come home to you 

           D                  A 
you don't wait for life to cut you any slack 
           D              A 
when the world pins you down,  
      D          A 
you punch right back 
     F#m                D 
no matter how bad it gets 
              E 
don't ever tighten the noose

so i don't have to feel the way i do 
       F#m                    D 
but i feel something in the air tonight
