Intro:
D* Bb F C
D* Bb F* F*
Dm Bb
When I was sent to walk this long cold way
F C
I'd never meant to take it all this far
Dm Bb
Nobody told me I was bound to stray
F Bb
You gave me visions and cut out this part
C5 G5
When the journey is over
Bb
Then what will remain
But a churchyard of angels
D5 Bb5
Don't need no glory
F5 C5
The bottle and I
D5 C5 A5 Bb5
Don't need no sympathy at all
As I hang on the edge
D5 Bb5
Don't need no glory
F5 C5
Till the river's run dry
D5 C5 A5 Bb5
I won't cry for sympathy as I
Hang on the edge
Dm Bb
When your were shackles chances passed me by
F
I've broken free
C
Now I'm free falling
Dm Bb
Laid down my arms as you laid down the lie:
F Bb
Those words you didn't say when I was calling
C5 G5
Fingers bleed onto the ivory
Bb
They dance on the keys
To a churchyard of angels
D5 Bb5
Don't need no glory
F5 C5
The bottle and I
D5 C5 A5 Bb5
Don't need no sympathy at all
As I hang on the edge
D5 Bb5
Don't need no glory
F5 C5
Till the river's run dry
D5 C5 A5 Bb5
I won't cry for sympathy as I
Hang on the edge
