Verse 1:
    Dm     G    Dm    G
I’m weary,                          
         Dm    G    Dm    G
from the cold.
Dm         G           Dm      G  
Satisfying everyone in need of me,
Dm         G               Dm     G
done every-thing I’ve been told.

  Dm    G    Dm    G          
I feel it,                                  
      Dm    G    Dm    G
in my bones.
Dm              G           Dm           G  
One step closer to where I don’t want to be.
Dm              G          Dm     G
Stuck somewhere I don’t belong.


Chorus-Bridge:
              C      G
But there’s a light,
                  C      G
at the end of the tunnel
           C       G         Am      F       G
And I will make it there, as long as I am able.


Chorus:
      C      G
Here I come, 
               C      G
to the promise land.
C        G          Am      F
Standing here on my own two feet,
       C         G      Am
what’s left of a broken man.
F    F    C    G

Am   F    C    G
        Broken man


Verse-Bridge:
Am      G


Verse 2:
               Dm     G   Dm  G
They say I’m an error,
       Dm          G   Dm  G
with no correction.
      Dm           G          Dm  G
And I just pray to God, every day,
         Dm          G        Dm     G
that I’m lost in the right direction.
  Dm      G   Dm  G
I hear it,
       Dm     G   Dm  G
what they say.
        Dm                   G      Dm     G
And I’m out to prove they’re not believers,
        Dm
and I’m headed, in the right way.


--Chorus-Bridge
--Chorus
--Verse-Bridge


Verse 3:
F
They say,
E
again and again.
     F
what kills us slowly,
                G
makes us better men.
      C            G
Oh redemption,
          C        G
is in the will.
   C          G        Am         F     G
As long as my heart is beating, I won’t stand still.


--Chorus


Ending:
Am  F
