[F#m] [E]
[A] Farther [D]
along the [F#m] way, no one [E] will know.
[A] Farther [D]
along the way, [F#m] understand [E]
why.
[A] So cheer up [D] my brother,
[F#m] Give him [E] a song, the [A] child will [D]
understand.
[F#m] All by [E] and by, [B] I turn in [A] and cry.
I wonder [D] why the good man, the bad man,
[F#m] Cries when Jesus cries.
Cause he knows [E] my mother,
We're all cast away, sitting in [A] a row.
Hanging on by the last thread of [D] our hope.
In our eyes, a mirror full of [F#m] smoke,
Confusing illusion and [F#] prophecy.
[A] Where did I go wrong?
I sang along [D] to every chorus of the song
[F#m] That the devil wrote like a piper at the [E] gate.
Leading us, the men, down to [A] their fate.
Some will courageously [D] escape,
A scrupted voice with a heart [F#m] of faith.
While walking the line back [E] home.
So much more [A] alive than we've been told.
[D] It's full of beauty that will unfold.
[F#m] And shine like new struck gold, my [E] wayward son.
The dead weight burden weighs [A] a ton.
Go down into the river and let it [D] run.
Wash away all the things you've [F#] done.
Forgiveness, all [E] that.
[E] [A] Farther [D] along the [F#m] way,
No one [E] will die,
[A] Farther [D]
along the [F#m] way.
[E] Understand why,
[A] So cheer up [D] my brothers.
[F#m] Give them [E] the sun,
The [A] sunshine,
The moon, [D] the stars,
The rain,
[F#m] All by [E]
the [A] way.
[D]
[F#m] [E]
[A] [D]
[F#m] [B]
Still I'll get [A] up, pray,
Strong on every [D] side,
Between the rock and the compromise.
[F#m] Dark truth in the black glass,
Fighting for [E] my soul.
But I got no place [A] left to go.
Cause I got changed by what [D] I've been shown.
The smoke lower than the world has [F#m] known.
It keeps me rambling [E] on.
Steeped in life, [A] I'm getting loose.
I missed [D] all of me to love.
I get up once and for [F#m] all,
And even when I fall,
I [F#] get back up with the joy that overflowed [A] my cup.
Heaven filled me with more [D] than enough.
Broke down my levies and [F#m] my gloves.
I let the flood [E] wash it.
One day [A] when the sky rolled back on [D] us,
And some rejoiced and then the others [F#m] fussed.
Because everyone bowed and [E] humbly blessed.
So in the Godless [A] forever blessed,
This is the kingdom [D] where the guests of
Contra Costa [F#m] to sing their [E] hearts.
[A] Are [D] there a lot of good?
[F#m] No [E] other kind.
[A] Are [D] there a lot of [F#m] wealth?
[E] Understand that.
[A] So cheer [D] up my friend.
[F#m] Little [E] things like some are a [A] good child.
Little [D] things like singing [F#m] is a good child.
[E]
I'm just a [A] little [D]
child.
