Standard (EADGBE)
(chords are listed above the lyrics)
somewhere back in the middle of town
the locals cracked and smacked me 'round
they offered work well I turned it down
the handcuffs hurt, who's laughing now?
knock on my door, the way you once did
knock on my door, after sunset
we won't wait the way we once did
and those fears he kept inside
they were here to testify
that the man just ain't alive to find
the will that stayed behind
well somewhere off in the middle of space
explosions fall and begin the chase
for the spirit from a humble face
who bid the call of the heavens haste
knock on my door, the way you used to
knock on my door, if you should choose to
we won't wait unless you want to
and the battered bleeding ties
won't bid us dear goodbyes
and the shackles we've been binded by
won't pay us any mind
knock on my door
