[Gbm] What is it?
Well, the good news is he said that you can go he did he did he did
[Dm] There's bad news, though.
[A] What is it?
You can walk
But it won't be like you planned
What do [Bbm] you mean?
Why not?
Well, [Am] you won't be hand in hand
[Eb] You won't be [A] armed and out [Dm] side by side and all of that
[D] He said you have to walk in front [Bb] and she has to walk in back
[Db] Why and if you turn around to make sure she's coming, too
[C] Then she goes back to Hades town [Gbm] and ain't nothing you can do
[G] But why why [Db] build walls [Gbm] make folks walk single file?
Divide and [Ebm] conquers what it's [Eb] called.
It's a trap.
It's a trial
[A] Do you trust each other?
Do you trust yourselves?
We do well listen brother [Gbm] if you wanna walk out of hell
[Dm] You're gonna have to prove it [Am] before God's and [A] men
Can you do that?
_ We can
[Am] All right time to [F] go.
Mr.
Hermes
Yes
[Em] _ It's not a trick
[E] No _
It's a test
_ [Em] The meanest dog you'll ever meet [F] he ain't the hound dog in the street
[C] He bears some teeth and tears some [E] skin, but brother, that's the worst of him
[Em] Dog, you really got a dread [F] is the one that howls inside your head
[C] It's him who's howling drives men [E] mad and a mind to its undoing
[F] _ Me _
[C] _ _ [G] _ [F] Wait _ _ _
[C] _ _ [G] You [F] wait for me [C] I'm coming
[G] I'm [E] coming away so we can see [F] show the way the world could be
[C] You can do [G] it.
So can she [E] she can do it
So can we show the way the world could [F] be show the way so we believe
[C] We will [Em] follow where you need
[E] We will [Abm] follow with you [Am] show the way think they'll [E] make it I don't know [F] show the way
Hades you let them go [C] the way I
Let them [E] try and [Ab] how about you and I [Am] show the way are [E] we gonna try again [F] show the way
It's time for [C] spring
Try again next [E] fall wait for me.
I will

[A] _ _ [B] _ [Am] You got a lonesome road [F] to walk and it ain't along the railroad [C] track and it ain't along the
Blocktop [E] car you walk now on it times before
[C] I'll tell you where the real [F] world lies between your hands behind your [C] eyes
That is the path of paradise
[E] Likewise the road to ruin
