intro :
E B G# C#m B E

verse 1 :
F# C# B F#
i walk these streets where my soulless feet
B C# F#
haunt the ground where it was i once tread
F# C# B F#
on grafton’s arcade pours the rich commerce rain
B C# F#
though the voices i no longer hear speak

verse 2 :
E B G# C#m
heaven’s to blame so on that i’ll abstain
F# B
best clean the church from my cracked fingernail

chorus :
E B G# C#m
but don’t let me die still wondering
B E
what it was i left behind

verse 1 :
F# C# B F#
from god’s golden plate begrudgers they eat
B C# F#
till their belly’s burst ignorance bliss
F# C# B F#
never they roam a wanderless home
B C# F#
is as far as their sorry eye sees

verse 2 :
E B G# C#m
give me a rusty ol’ goat well trampled and soaked
F# B
until these ashes and blood mingle deep

chorus :
E B G# C#m
but don’t let me die still wondering
B E
what it was i left behind

interlude :
G#m F# E B G#m F# E
G#m F# E B G#m F# E

bridge :
G#m F#
though i’ve been that face before
E B
slammed every open door
G#m F# E
squandered once scattered beliefs
G#m F#
so when the waves come crashin’ in
E B
i’ll swim as the ocean swims
E B
out with the morning tide
F# B
then back for my tea

E B E B E B

verse 1 :
F# C# B F#
so i’ll do as i please like the well – tempered breeze
B C# F#
blowin’ which way i see fit
F# C# B F#
i’ll grey with the clay seven days till the day
B C# F#
when they throw me on the potter’s scrap heap

verse 2 :
E B G# C#m
but take my advice; you’ll have to bury me twice
F# B
cause the first time i won’t rest easily

chorus :
E B G# C#m
but don’t let me die still wondering
B E
what it was i left behind

chorus variation :
C#m G#m A E
so don’t let me die still wondering
C#m G#m A
what it was i left behind
C#m G#m A E
i want a race well run ahead of the gun
C#m G#m A
with a dance before the far finish line
C#m G#m A E
so no life long regrets , only well feathered steps
C#m B A
until these shoes i can no longer shine
C#m G#m A E
but don’t let me die still wanderin’
C#m G#m A
for the love i left behind

outro :
C#m G#m A E A E B E
A E A E A E
