Capo 2

    [D]                  [G]       [D]  [Dsus2]  [D]
Old man on the corner, singing my life
                             [G]      [D]  [Dsus2] [D]
He's playing guitar with a rusty old knife
                                          [G]
Each line that he sings rhymes with the truth
        [D]                   [A]        [G]
And the promise of something beyond the blues
  

[D]                            [G]     [D]  [Dsus2] [D]
You and me darling took the long way around
                                        [G]          [D]  [Dsus2] [D]
Across the wide open country, past the heart attack town
                                                 [G]
Hit the fork in the road where we all have to choose
        [D]                  [A]         [G]
Between darkness and light, beyond the blues

           [D]              [G]                   
Beyond the shadows, and the rain
           [A]                  [D]
Beyond the darkness, beyond the pain
                  [G]                         [D]  [Dsus2] [D]
You know in your heart there's no way I push through
                       [A]                              
Take a walk with me darling
            [G]
Beyond the blues

Solo

[D]                        [G]                  [D]  [Dsus2] [D]
That old man on the corner he's been gone for years
                     [G]               [D]  [Dsus2] [D]
His guitar and knife all rusted with tears
                                                         [G]
There's a song that he gave us that we'll never have to lose
  [D]                      [A]          [G]
About another life waiting beyond the blues
           

         [D]                 [G]                   
Beyond the shadows, and the rain
           [A]                    [D]
Beyond the darkness, beyond the pain
                   [G]                         [D]  [Dsus2] [D]
You know in your heart there's no way I push through
                       [A]                              
Take a walk with me darling
            [G]
Beyond the blues
  [D]                  [A]
Take a walk with me darling
             [G]
Beyond the blues
