INTRO: Em D Em
In the land of skin and sorrow
Lies a [D]heart as pure as [Em]gold
Who is waiting for the last ones
To come [D]back into the [Em]fold
Some will [D]wander in to[Em]day
Some hold [D]back until to[Em]morrow
But the door will soon be closing
In the [D]land of skin and [Em]sorrow
INTERLUDE: D Em D Em
Climbing out is never easy
On this [D]ladder, rung by [Em]rung
Swinging wildly in the breezes
Souls e[D]merging, one by [Em]one
As it [D]was in the be[Em]ginning
It shall [D]be again to[Em]morrow
While the lamp of love still burns here
In the [D]land of skin and [Em]sorrow
INSTRUMENTAL: Em D Em D Em
Beasts of [D]burden (beasts of burden)

Will lay [D]down (will lay down)
Their coats of [Em]clay
We must return all that we borrowed
From the [D]land of skin and [Em]sorrow
