[G] [C] There's a light [G] at the end of [D] the tunnel, across the river, across the river.
She walked proud and so strong, [F] but she tried [Am] and often was turned [G] to idle [D] talk.
[G] [D] Downtown where she walked, really sitting around in this state.
[F] She came [Am] back [G] and told [D] me her ways, like we always said she [G] would.
[D] [Am] Well, I hear [D] it's better on the other [G] side.

[Am] Well, there's a heart [Em] and distant [G] cries.
Probably won't [D] happen, but I think I'll try.
[Am] Well, even if it [G] doesn't happen for me, still beats are hanging by a year.
