[C#m] As he [A] walks [C#m] along the [A] gorgeous [G#m] edge He meets the [A] sense of [F#m]
[E] yesteryear
A [C#m] window [A] in the [C#m] bank [A] above his [G#m] head Reveals his [A] form amidst [F#m] the [E] streets
A [F#]
[G#m] circle of sounds, sounds of complaints The [A] smell of acid on his gun-hot face
As [G#m] he coughs out anger in a blood-red band
[A] Destroyed tomorrow by an unknown hand [E] Michael!ents Ah! [A#] [D#] Is this the way out from the embers' sea [D#m] Or [F#] just an entrance to another tree? At [A#] the night [E]
But [C#m] as the [A] skylight [C#m] [A] beckons him [G#m] to leave, he hears [A] a scream from far [E] below. [C#m] Within [A] the raging [C#m] water, [A] thrives [G#m] the farm of Brother [A] John. He cries [E] for help. [G#m] The gate is fading now, but open [E] [G#m] wide. [A] The dawn is drowning, I must decide. [G#m] Between the freedom I had and the rat [A] race, I'll stay forever in this forsaken place. [E] Hey John! [A#] [D#] He makes for the river, and the gate is gone. [D#m] Back [F#] to the boy where he came from. [A#] After life, life, life, life, life [E] dies down. Down, down, down the road, [Bm] [Em] [Bm] down the [Em] road. [F#]
