[D] [A] [D] [A]
[D]First warm day in all these [A]months[G]
[D]All the sunlight made me [A]drunk
[G]Made me feel like I could [D]run
Made me feel like I was [A]young [G]
[D]So I went out all on my [A]own[G]
[D]I told no one where'd I'd [A]go
[G]Anyway I did not [D]know I only knew I had to [A]go
[G]Out beyond the iron [D]gate
[Bm]Out there where you [G]said [A]you'd [D]wait[D][A][D][A]
[D]Gotten used to living h[A]ere[G]
[D]Call it habit call it [A]fear
[G]Though I had glanced your way for [D]years
Til today I'd never da[A]red [G]
[D]But it was easy slipping [A]through[G]
[D]Easy as the morning [A]dew
[G]That lingers til the afternoo[D]n
And rises back into the [A]blue
[G]Out beyond the iron [D]gate
[Bm]Out there where you [G]said [A]you'd [D]wait[D][A][D][A]
SOLO
[D]There you were right by my s[A]ide[G]
[D]Reaching down to lift me [A]high
[G]I held on with all my [D]might
Held on to a world made [A]right
[G]Out beyond the iron [D]gate
[Bm]Out there where you [G]said [A]you'd [D]wait[D][A][D][A]
[D]I heard voices all a[A]round [D]Someone lifted off the [A]shroud
[G]I saw my children gather [D]round
Now I will tell them what I f[A]ound
[G]Out beyond the iron [D]gate
[Bm]Out there where you [G]said [A]you'd [D]wait[D][A][D][A]
SOLO
