Verse 1:
G+G                C majorC
I’m at the bottom rung of the ladder
G+G                 D MajorD
Baby how could I keep climbing on up
    G+G           C majorC     G+G
Here I stand with a lightning rod in my hand
         D MajorD       G+G
But the light strikes at the top

Chorus:
E minorEm         C majorC
Well the days are dark
E minorEm         C majorC
Like the peeling bark
E minorEm      D MajorD   G+G
Of a dyig hemlock tree
E minorEm            D MajorD
Where the moon sets the sunrise forever
G+G          C majorC
I’ll be forced to climb
G+G       D MajorD        G+G
Or else the same I’ll forever be

Verse 2:
G+G             C majorC     G+G
One day I’ll dive right over the Rhine
                    D MajorD
no longer could I lie or keep from cryin'
 G+G          C majorC
out loud I’ll run, like a donkey does in the sun
 G+G             D MajorD       G+G
alone, not two, apart from you, wild an’ gone

Chorus:
E minorEm         C majorC
Well the days are dark
E minorEm         C majorC
Like the peeling bark
E minorEm      D MajorD   G+G
Of a dyig hemlock tree
E minorEm            D MajorD
Where the moon sets the sunrise forever
G+G          C majorC
I’ll be forced to climb
G+G       D MajorD        G+G
Or else the same I’ll forever be

Verse 3:
G+G                C majorC
I’m at the bottom rung of the ladder

Baby how could I keep climbing on up
    G+G           C majorC     G+G
Here I stand with a lightning rod in my hand
         D MajorD       G+G
But the light strikes at the top
