My feet plow on
B
From light to dawn
BBAbm
My empty belly and my body aches
Abm
Ain?t hard to take
AbmGbB
Next to the weight
B
I carry in my chest
B
A pound of flesh
BBAbm
Could never tip the scale that I?ve made
Abm
I should have stayed
AbmGbmE
But I was never wise
EGbAbm
I hear your voices in the wind that cuts the night
EGbB
And I pray to whatever is listening things?ll be all right
BB6Abm
Oh, my boy, you're alive
AbmGb
Your heart's still beating
BB6Abm
So don?t you mind, don?t you mind
GbE
We all drift sometimes
EGbAbm
I can still hear your feet as you ran from the house
EGbAbmEb
Knowing you won?t be back doesn?t mean that I will stop waiting
EGbAbmEb
You told me then, hold me down, hold me up to the fire
EGb
But don?t you dare hold me back
B
Whoh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
AGb
Whoh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
B
Whoh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
EGbAbm
I see your face's in the clouds that scar the night
EGbB
And I pray to whoever is listening things?ll be all right
AbmGb
Then today I wake up feeling easy
EbE
Find I?m on the more familiar roads
AbmGb
I got a darkness wrapped inside me
BE
But now it ain?t so hard to let it go
AbmGb
So keep a candle burning in the window
B
I?m almost home
