DIt s chilly wind that Emblows, GChurch Street in the Bmmorning
DIt s a hard, hard Emage resting Gheavy on my mDind
DAnd Hannah cries Emsoft as the Gfront door slowly cBmloses
EmAnd she is not the Emonly oGne I ve left bDehind
Em G D A7
DI can still Emsee you dGancing in the stBmreet light
DBaltimore smEmile and rain droGps dripping from your Dhair
DOnce I held you cEmlose and youG wrapped your legs Bmaround
EmI woke up in the niEmght, it was not Gyou, you were not Dthere
Em G D A7
DIt s not the end of the wEmorld, just this cGountry as I knowBm it
DI ve been across and Emback, I ve seen the hiGgh and chosen fDew
DI will take the hiEmt, because I m stGronger and I knoBmw it
EmTake the cap off of the rockEmet boys and teGll me when it s dDue
Em G D A7
DI ve known lots of peEmople , lots of drGifters, lots of reBmjects,
DLots of clowns, lots of loEmvers, lots of liaGrs, lots of tDhieves
DAnd I have been the cEmat, I ve been the moGuth, I ve been the clBmoser
EmI am like a vauEmlt, your family's Gsecret's safe withD me
Em G D A7
DSo forgive me if I drEmift off in the sileGnt folds of memoBmries
DBout the battles that I foEmught in war and the Gones I ve loved beDfore
DCause I have lived through dEmarkness, hope and loGnely dying kiBmsses
EmAnd I have seen the memoEmry walk anGgry out the doDor.
Em G D A7
DAnd I have been left for loEmsers, left for heaGrtache, left for moBmney
DAnd I have been left alEmone, left beGhind and left for Ddead
DAnd you can take the piEmeces there and figGht for recognitiBmon
EmBut I will take the meEmmories and silenGce in my heaDd
Em G D A7
