C G G*
He reads yesterday's news,
C G G*
Cause today's just scares him.
C G G*
Thinks of yesterday's blues,
C G G*
Cause today's are just far too grim.
C C5 G D
And it grows, on it grows.
C G
And I see him down in the morning,
C G
Lying blind without no warning.
C G
Seen him running through the night,
C G
Through the fall lead his enemies inside.
C C5 G D
And it grows, on it grows.
C5 C G
And I'm learning how to walk,
C5 C G
Learning how to take my time,
C5 C G
Or the angels take him away and,
C5 C G
Lay his body six feet 'neath clay,
C C5 G D
And it grows, on it grows.
C G
And I see him burning to dust,
C G
Seen him falling through the shadows,
C G
Shed a tear and his cheek rusts,
C G
Seen him falling through the shadows,
C C5 G D
And it grows, on it grows.
C5 C G
And I'm learning how to walk,
C5 C G
Learning how to take my time,
C5 C G
Or the angels take him away and,
C5 C G
Lay his body six feet 'neath clay,
C C5 G D
And it grows, on it grows.
C G
I'll walk and then I'll walk,
C G
Lord, I'll walk, I'll walk and then I'll walk
C G
Lord, I'll walk, Lord, I'll walk
C G
I'll walk, Lord, I'll walk, Lord, I'll walk
C G
Lord, I'll walk, Lord, I'll walk
C G
And I'll walk, Lord, I'll walk, Lord, I'll walk
C C5 G D
And it grows, on it grows.
C G
He's as angry as the hills
C G
He's got a mind and eyes and both set to kill, oh
C G
Maybe that he may learn to walk,
C G
And maybe that he may learn to take his time,
C G
Maybe that I may learn to walk,
C G
Maybe that I may learn to turn my back once more...
