Don’t let me in

I’m not going to hurt you

But I’m not your friend

C#m B E E

And I can not go

C#m B E E

I was meant to wander this mountain alone

A B

Well the Sun doesn’t rise

E C#m

On this side of the state

A B E E

But I should have told you that myself

A B E C#m

And the word I heard is that you have broken free

A B E E

So in the Darkness ill just light my cigarette

A B E E

Oh the darkness ill just light my cigarette.

C#m B E E

Hold still your gun

C#m

You can never scare me

B E E

And I will never run

C#m B E E

‘Cuz I wont let go

C#m

I’m always back for more

B E E

Though I wish it wasn’t so

A B

Cuz I know what I’ve done

E C#m

And I’ve done it all for you

A B E E

Don’t mind all the notions that I make

A B

And just once in a while

E C#m

I wish you saw me through

A B E E

And Carefully I know you’d find the way

Oh and carefully I know you’d find the way

When God blessed my soul

C#m

It’s better off with him,

B E E

Then me, alone.

A B

When I’m looking on at you

E C#m

You're staring back at me

A B E E

I feel like I know what I’ve done wrong

A B

And the only thing to do

E C#m

Is shoot the breeze with you

A B E E

And tell me how you’ve been and where you’ve gone

A B E E

Oh now tell me how you’ve been and where you‘ve gone
