♫ Intro:

Em Am Em
C  Am C
Em C  Em



♫ Verse 1:
C   Am     Em
Modern industrial life
C     Am     Em
Take your soul in its fangs
C   Am    Em
We might as well be
C  Am   Em
All washed away

C     Am   Em
If I don’t hang on tight
C    Am   Em
If I let myself stray
C   Am   Em
I will lose my sight
C       Am   Em
And I will be washed away

♫ Chorus:
 Dm      F       Am
And, oh, some days I walk my own
 Dm  F  Am
Oh, my own pace
 C    G    Am
It takes away the heartache

♫ Verse 2:
C      Am        Em
It seems no one has their own eyes
C      Am      Em
And we all speak from the cage
C   Am    Em
Are we living in fright
C        Am   Em
Consenting to be washed away

♫ Verse 3:
C      Am      Em
I’ll lose my heart, my own eyes
C       Am      Em
I’ll lose the smell of the rain
C     Am      Em
As I walk aimless in the night
C     Am   Em
I will be washed away

♫ Chorus:
 Dm      F        Am
And, oh, some days I brush the palm
Dm   F Am
Oh, of my hand
 C     G            Am
Across the face of this forgotten land

♫ Verse 4:
C     Am      Em
I left my print in the sand
C    Am  Em
Organic mark made
C      Am      Em
I got up and walked in the night
C          Am   Em
And I refused to be washed away

♫ Verse 5:
C   Am      Em
The burden of modern life
C      Am      Em
The heart it beats and it prays
C     Am     Em
Forever to walk in the night
C      Am   Em
And never be washed away

♫ Outro:
 Dm      F       Am
And, oh, some days I walk my own
Dm F   Am
Oh, my own pace
 C    G    Am
It takes away the heartache

 Dm     F         Am
And oh some days
I brush the palm
Dm   F  Am
Oh, of my hand
 C     G            Am
Across the face of this forgotten land
