Richard Shindell - Beyond The Iron Gate




CAPO: 2nd Fret


INTRO: C majorC  G+G  (2x) C majorC

              G+G    C majorC
First warm day in all these months
             G+G    FF
All the sunlight made me drunk
             C majorC
Made me feel like I could run
            G+G    C majorC
Made me feel like I was young

            G+G  C majorC
So I went out all on my own
            G+G  FF
I told no one where I'd go
         C majorC
Anyway I did not know
           G+G  FF
I only knew I had to go


CHORUS:
          C majorC   ~ A minorAm
Out beyond the iron gate
          FF  G+G    C majorC
Out there where you said you'd wait


INTERLUDE: C majorC  G+G  (2x) C majorC


             G+G   C majorC
I'd gotten used to living here
            G+G   FF
Call it habit, call it fear
                 C majorC
Though I had glanced your way for years
            G+G    C majorC
Until today, I'd never dared

             G+G     C majorC
But it was easy slipping through
          G+G   FF
Easy as the morning dew
              C majorC
That lingers 'til the afternoon
            G+G   FF
And rises back into the blue


CHORUS:
          C majorC   ~ A minorAm
Out beyond the iron gate
          FF  G+G    C majorC
Out there where you said you'd wait


INSTRUMENTAL: C majorC  G+G  (4x)  FF  C majorC  G+G  C majorC


              G+G   C majorC
There you were right by my side
             G+G   FF
Reaching down to lift me high
           C majorC
I held on with all my might
            G+G   FF
Held onto a world made right


CHORUS:
          C majorC   ~ A minorAm
Out beyond the iron gate
          FF  G+G    C majorC
Out there where you said you'd wait


INTERLUDE: C majorC  G+G  (2x) C majorC


            G+G    C majorC
I heard the voices all around
            G+G    FF
Someone lifted off the shroud
             C majorC
I saw my children gather 'round
                G+G    FF
And I will tell them what I've found


CHORUS:
          C majorC   ~ A minorAm
Out beyond the iron gate
          FF  G+G    C majorC
Out there where you said you'd wait


OUTRO: C majorC  G+G  C majorC  G+G  FF  C majorC  G+G  C majorC  (3x - fade to end)
