[G] [D] [Dm] [G] [D]
[G] [D] You [Em] are walking
[D]
[G] [D] [Dm] [G] [D]
[G] You've always been walking
[D]
[G] Stumbling [Dm] half [E]-blinded and [G] dry as the wind
That strays you and leads you to [C] lie [G] in the sand
And the wall stretches endless [C]
beside you [G] to no rest
This wall [Fm] that [A] [G] you've [C] been trying [A] to [F] cross [C] for [G] years
This [Gm] fence made [G] of fear
[Dm] [Gm] And [D] nobody [G]
[D] hears
[G] [D] [Dm] [G]
[D] [G] [D] [Dm] [G] You [D] [G] see [D] a [G] door
[D] [G] [D] [G]
[D] Ah, such a [G] great [D] open door
[G]
[D] You [G] know that your [E] eyes [C] telling lies still [G] you chance
A shambling [C] run, a [G] ridiculous dance
Like a scarecrow [Em] that's hung up [C] to dry [G] on a fence pole
And there's a space [Eb] like [G] vacuum [C] [G] waiting [C] [F] inside
[G]
For you to get through that one scrap [D] of
[G] [D] [Dm]
[G] [D] [G] [Dm]
[G] You [D] [G] sent them all
[D] [G] [D] [Dm] Fresh [G] clean [D] [G] grass, food [Dm] and [G] water
[C] [G] Your breath is [Em] scraping [C] your brain [G] into dust
Your rusty old engine [C] is [G] ready to bust
You [Fm] cannot [Em] believe it that [C] they [G] would not trust you
But that [Cm] door is
[Dm] [C] [G] wavering, [F] is that
[C] [G]
[D] Are [C] they still [G] telling lies?
What [D] are [G] lies?
