Capo 2

    [ D5 ]                  [ G5 ]       [ D5 ]  [ D5 ]  [ D5 ]
Old man on the corner, singing my life
                             [ G5 ]      [ D5 ]  [ D5 ] [ D5 ]
He's playing guitar with a rusty old knife
                                          [ G5 ]
Each line that he sings rhymes with the truth
        [ D5 ]                   [ A5 ]        [ G5 ]
And the promise of something beyond the blues
  

[ D5 ]                            [ G5 ]     [ D5 ]  [ D5 ] [ D5 ]
You and me darling took the long way around
                                        [ G5 ]          [ D5 ]  [ D5 ] [ D5 ]
Across the wide open country, past the heart attack town
                                                 [ G5 ]
Hit the fork in the road where we all have to choose
        [ D5 ]                  [ A5 ]         [ G5 ]
Between darkness and light, beyond the blues

           [ D5 ]              [ G5 ]                   
Beyond the shadows, and the rain
           [ A5 ]                  [ D5 ]
Beyond the darkness, beyond the pain
                  [ G5 ]                         [ D5 ]  [ D5 ] [ D5 ]
You know in your heart there's no way I push through
                       [ A5 ]                              
Take a walk with me darling
            [ G5 ]
Beyond the blues

Solo

[ D5 ]                        [ G5 ]                  [ D5 ]  [ D5 ] [ D5 ]
That old man on the corner he's been gone for years
                     [ G5 ]               [ D5 ]  [ D5 ] [ D5 ]
His guitar and knife all rusted with tears
                                                         [ G5 ]
There's a song that he gave us that we'll never have to lose
  [ D5 ]                      [ A5 ]          [ G5 ]
About another life waiting beyond the blues
           

         [ D5 ]                 [ G5 ]                   
Beyond the shadows, and the rain
           [ A5 ]                    [ D5 ]
Beyond the darkness, beyond the pain
                   [ G5 ]                         [ D5 ]  [ D5 ] [ D5 ]
You know in your heart there's no way I push through
                       [ A5 ]                              
Take a walk with me darling
            [ G5 ]
Beyond the blues
  [ D5 ]                  [ A5 ]
Take a walk with me darling
             [ G5 ]
Beyond the blues
