Dead Mans Rope

C                                                         F
A million footsteps, this left foot drags behind my right
                         G                                C
But I keep walking, from daybreak 'til the falling night
And as days turn into weeks and years
And years turn into lifetimes
            F        Am              G
I just keep walking, like I've been walking for a thousand years
C
Walk away in emptiness, walk away in sorrow
F                       G
Walk away from yesterday, walk away tomorrow
C
If you're walking to escape, to escape from your affliction
         F                            G                    C
You'd be walking in a great circle, a circle of addiction
Did you ever wonder what you'd been carrying since the world was black?
            F                                  G
You see yourself in a looking glass with a tombstone on your back

C
Walk away in emptiness, walk away in sorrow
F                       G
Walk away from yesterday, walk away tomorrow (Walk Away...)
C
Walk away in anger, walk away in pain
F                         G
Walk away from life itself, walk into the rain

Am  F    G    Em  F    Dm             G
All this wandering has led me to this place
           E            Am          F             Fm     Em
Inside the well of my memory, sweet rain of forgiveness
         F               G
I'm just hanging here in space

C
Now I'm suspended between my darkest fears and dearest hope
F                              G
Yes I've been walking, now I'm hanging from a dead man's rope
     C
With Hell below me, and Heaven in the sky above
          F                          G
I've been walking, I've been walking away from Jesus' love

C
Walk away in emptiness, walk away in sorrow
F                       G
Walk away from yesterday, walk away tomorrow (Walk Away...)
C
Walk away in anger, walk away in pain
F                         G
Walk away from life itself, walk into the rain

Am  F    G    Em  F    Dm             G
All this wandering has led me to this place
           E            Am          F             Fm     Em
Inside the well of my memory, sweet rain of forgiveness
         F               G             Cm
I'm just hanging here in space

            C    Cm Ab
The shadows fall
          F
Around my bed
     Em             Fm
When the hand of an angel
    Em         Fm       G        F#
The hand of an angel is reaching down
Bm    G   A (all simultaneously with chorus)
above my head ...dering has led...

Bm   G   A   F#   G    Em              A
All this wandering has led me to this place
           A#             B         G          Gm        F#
Inside the well of my memory, sweet rain of forgiveness
        G              A         F#
Now I'm walking in his grace
        G              A
Now I'm walking in his grace
A
I'm walking in his footsteps
Walking in his footsteps (x2)

D                  G                     A
All the days of my life I will walk with you (x2)
D                  G      Bm   A
All the days of my life I will share with you
D                  G      Bm   A
All the days of my life I will bear with you

D
Walk away in anger, walk away in pain
Em                        A                    D
Walk away from life itself, walk into the rain
