[C] [Gm] [Bb]
[F] [Bb] [F]
There's a sorrow [Bb] [F] in the wind Blowing down [Bb] the [F] road I've been
[Dm] I can hear it cry [Bb] while shadows [F] steal the sun
[Bb] [F] But I cannot [Bb] [F] look back now I've come too far [Bb] to [F] turn around
And [Dm] there's still a race [Bb] ahead that [F] I must [Bb] run
[F]
I'm [Dm] only [C] halfway [F] home I've [Dm] got to [Gm] journey [F] on
To [Gm] where I'll find, [Bb] find the thing [F] I've lost
[Bb] [F]
I've [Dm] come a [C] long, [F] long road But [Dm] still I've got [C] some [F] miles to go
I've [Gm] got a wide, a [Bb] wide river [F] to crawl
[Bb] [F] I have stumbled, [Bb] I [F] have strayed You can trace [Bb] the [F] tracks I've made
[Dm] All it costs, the [Bb] memories my [F] heart [Bb] [F] recalls But I'm still [Bb] a [F] refugee
Won't you sing [Bb] a prayer [F] for me?
[Dm] Cause sometimes even [Bb] the strongest [F] soldier falls
[Bb] [F] I'm [Dm] only [C] halfway [F] home I've [Dm] got to [Gm] journey [F] on
To [Gm] where I'll find, find [Bb] the thing [F] I've lost
[Bb] [F] I've [Dm] come a [C] long, [F] long road But [Dm] still I've [C] got some [F] miles to go
I've [Gm] got a wide, a [Bb] wide river [F] to crawl
