Am       Em                  Am
How long can this journey go on?
F                                  
Will I find the place I'm meant to 
Am
go?
F
Will dreams fall down around us
                     Am
Just like the winter snow?

Am      Em                Am
Another year has come and gone
F                                 
Will my luck hold on for one year 
Am
more?
F
I think of how far I have come
                     G
And what's been left behind

Am           Em                Am
When will they carry my body down?
Am           Em                Am
When will they carry my body down?
Continues after the ad
           F
Will they take it from the river
After I've jumped right in and 
Am
drowned?
           F
Will they find it on the battlefield
                         G
On the spot I stood my ground?

Am     Em            Am
I walk alone, I walk apart
F                        Am
Someday, I'll wander no more
F
I search to find what I have lost
                          Am
And that which I've never known
Am          Em              Am
And when I find that I have gone
F                    Am
Across that river I know
F
I'll take only my memories
                           G
And things that might have been

Am           Em               Am
When will they carry my body down?
Am           Em               Am
When will they carry my body down?
F
Will they cut it from a hangman's 
noose
                              Am
After the sentence has come down?
     F
Will anyone be there
To mourn a villain's passing to the 
G
ground?

Am           Em               Am
When will they carry my body down?
Am           Em               Am
When will they carry my body down?
Am
When will they carry my body down?
