Written by: Danny Stephens
This is the h[Em]ard part[C]
Stopp[D]ing to [Am]ask for di[Em]rections[C]
Sketc[D]hing with [Am]these dirty[Em] colors ju[C]st where I [D]am
You might have he[Em]ard me [C]
Artf[D]ully dod[Am]ging the buzz[Em]-words[C]
And sc[D]offing [Am]at your insinuat[Em]ion
Of j[C]ust where[D] I am
Chorus: [G]I'm a long l[C]ong way
From whe[D]re I left to[G] begin this refr[C]ain
From whe[D]re your mercy and g[G]race rem[C]ain
From whe[D]re you sit[Am] is it true
It's [C]not that [D]far to you
It happened [Em]slowly[C]
Fe[D]et fallin[Am]g hard on the[Em] pavement[C]
Eyes [D]reaching i[Am]nto the dist[Em]ance
Towa[C]rds empty sun[D]sets
CHORUS
Bridge: Didn't[Am] I need to bre[A2]ak out, w[Asus]ant to be k[Am]ing?
Wo[Am]uldn't I face the g[A2]allows[Asus] if I [Am]return?
O[Am]r is s man freely [A2]pardoned
A[Asus]s I have hea[D]rd
Precious [Em]Jesus[C]
Wh[D]ere can I [Am]flee from your sp[Em]irit?
You[C] know me too w[D]ell
CHORUS
This is my first shot at tabbing a song, and I tried my best. The verses
and chorus are pretty accurate I think but I'm not so sure about the
bridge. That is the way I play it and it sounds okay. Smalltown Poets
use a mandolin and a violin in this song and it sounds great!
