G    C

Verse:
N.C.      G                          C               G
There's a light in the darkness just barely out of view
                               D
From the corner of your vision, it beckons to you
          G                                C
After the crops have all come in, amid the stubble and the chaff
        Em      D       G            C       D    G    C
Keep on walking when it whispers and don't look back

Verse:
N.C.              G                               C               G
Some say it's the Ghost Train's headlight or poor Wayland Smith's pyre
                                  D
Some say it's the Will O' The Wisp or Saint Elmo's Fire
       G                                   C
Or the ghost of wandering spirits that got lost between the worlds
        Em      D         G                 C       D        G
Keep on walking when they whisper or if the lines begin to blur

Chorus:
          C
When it's done, it's said and done
          Em         D        C
When it's gone, it's good and gone
                  Em      D        G
Sometimes there's nothing left to do
             C       D     G    C
But pack it up and move along

Verse:
N.C.    G                               C                   G
I'm not saying I don't remember or that all things can be repaired
                                         D
But after the truth has been told, where do you go from there?
            G                           C
Sorrow is a constant companion, we just learn to walk beside
        Em      D       G                  C      D         G
Keep on walking when it whispers and don't listen when it lies

Chorus:
          C
When it's done, it's said and done
          Em         D        C
When it's gone, it's good and gone
                  Em      D        G
Sometimes there's nothing left to do
             C       D     G    C
But pack it up and move along

Verse:
N.C.      G                           C              G
There are stories we are told just to keep us in our place
                                          D
There are stories we made up ourselves to save a little face
          G                               C
There the ones that made us crazy and the ones that kept us sane
        Em      D      G           C        D         G
Keep on walking if the stories all start to sound the same

Chorus:
          C
When it's done, it's said and done
          Em         D        C
When it's gone, it's good and gone
                  Em      D        G
Sometimes there's nothing left to do
             C       D     G
But pack it up and move along

Chorus:
          C
When it's done, it's said and done
          Em         D        C
When it's gone, it's good and gone
                  Em      D        G
Sometimes there's nothing left to do
             C       D     G
But pack it up and move along
                  Em      D        G
Sometimes there's nothing left to do
             C       D     G
But pack it up and move along
                  Em      D        G
Sometimes there's nothing left to do
             C       D     G
But pack it up and move along
