Intro

G Cadd9 Em7 D

GFarther alonCadd9g well knowEm7 all about Dit

GFarther alonCadd9g well undeEm7rstand why D

GCheer up my brotheCadd9rs, live iEm7n the sunshinDe

GWell understaCadd9nd this, all bEm7y and by D

GTempted and tried, I wondered why

 The gooCadd9d man died, the bad man thrives

 And JesEm7us cries because he loves em both D

Were all cast-aways in need of ropes

GHangin on by the last threads of our hope Cadd9

 In a house of mirrors full of smEm7oke

 Confusing illusions Ive seen D

 WGhere did I go wrong, I sang along

 To everCadd9y chorus of the song

 That the devilEm7 wrote like a piper at the gates

DLeading mice and men down to their fates G

 But some will courageously escapCadd9e

 The seductive voice with a heart of faitEm7h

 While walkin that line backD home

 So much more to life than Gweve been told

 Its full oCadd9f beauty that will unfold

 And shiEm7ne like you struck gold my wayward son D

 That deadweight burden weighs a ton G

 Go down into the river and let it runCadd9

 And wash away all the things youve done Em7

 Forgiveness alrigDht

Chorus

Intro 2x

GStill I get hard pressed on every side

 Between the rock Cadd9and a compromise

 Like the trutEm7h and pack of lies fightin for my soul D

 And Ive got no place left go G

 Cause I got changed by what Ive been shown Cadd9

 More glory than the world has known Em7

 Keeps me ramblin on D

 Skipping like a caGlf loosed from its stall

 Im freCadd9e to love once and for all

 And eveEm7n when I fall Ill get back up D

 For the joy that overflows my cup G

 Heaven filled me with more than enough Cadd9

 Broke down my levee and my bluff Em7

 Let the flood wash me D

GAnd one day when the sky rolls back on us

Cadd9Some rejoice and the others fuss

Em7Cause every knee must bow and tongue confess D

That the son of god is forever blessed

GHis is the kingdom, were the guests Cadd9

 So put your voice up to the test Em7

 Sing Lord, come soon D

Chorus
