My feet plow on
[B]From light to dawn
[B]My empty [B]belly and my [Abm]body aches
[Abm]Ain?t hard to take
[Abm]Next to the [Gb]weight[B]
[B]I carry in my chest
[B]A pound of flesh
[B]Could never t[B]ip the [Abm]scale that I?ve made
[Abm]I should have stayed
[Abm]But I was [Gbm]never [E]wise
[E]I hear your voices in the [Gb]wind that cuts the [Abm]night
[E]And I pray to whatever is [Gb]listening things?ll be all right[B]
[B]Oh, my [B6]boy, you're [Abm]alive
[Abm]Your heart's still [Gb]beating
[B]So don?t you [B6]mind, don?t you [Abm]mind
We all drift [Gb]sometime[E]s
[E]I can still hear your [Gb]feet as you ran from the [Abm]house
[E]Knowing you won?t be [Gb]back doesn?t [Abm]mean that I will stop [Eb]waiting
[E]You told me then, hold me [Gb]down, hold me up to the [Abm]fire[Eb]
[E]But don?t you dare hold me [Gb]back
[B]
[Abm] [Gb]
[B]
[E]I see your face's [Gb]in the clouds that scar the [Abm]night
[E]And I pray to whoever[Gb] is listening things?ll be all [B]right
[Abm]Then today I wake up feeling [Gb]easy
[Eb]Find I?m on the more familiar [E]roads
[Abm]I got a darkness wrapped in[Gb]side me
[B]But now it ain?t so hard to let it [E]go
[Abm]So keep a candle burning in the [Gb]window
[B]I?m almost home
[B]From light to dawn
[B]My empty [B]belly and my [Abm]body aches
[Abm]Ain?t hard to take
[Abm]Next to the [Gb]weight[B]
[B]I carry in my chest
[B]A pound of flesh
[B]Could never t[B]ip the [Abm]scale that I?ve made
