Am           Em              Am 
How long can this journey go on? 
F                           G        Am 
  Will I find the place I'm meant to go? 
     F                                                Am 
Will dreams fall down around us, just like the winter snow?  
Am      Em                Am 
Another year has come and gone 
F                          G        Am 
  Will my luck hold on for one year more?  
  F                                                    G 
I think of how far I have come, and what's been left behind 


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

	          F                                                     Am 
	Will they take it from the river after I've jumped right in and drowned? 
	          F                                                  G  
	Will they find it on the battlefield, on the spot I stood my ground?
  

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


	When will they carry my body down? 
	When will they carry my body down?  
	Will they cut it from a hangman's noose after the sentence has come down?  
	Will anyone be there to morn a villain's passing to the ground?
