G              C
As I stepped to the edge
       G              D
'yond the shadow of a doubt
G        C          G   D
With my conscience beating
          G          C
Like the pulse of a drum
      G             D
that hammers on and on
        C         D       G
til I reach the break of day

        G          C
As the sun beats down
        G        D
on the halfway house
G       C          G   D
has my conscience beating
      G          C
The sound in my ear
      G           D
the will to persevere
       C         D       G
as I reach the break of day


*chorus*
                   Em
When you lost all hope
         G
and excuses
          D                  G
and the cheapskates and the losers
           Em
Nothing's left
           G
to cling on to
         C  D
Got to hold on
                G
hold on to yourself
G  C  G  C  G  C  D
