[Bb] [Gm]
[Bb]I stand here by the Western Wall
[Gm]Maybe a little of that wall stands inside of us all
[Bb]I shove my prayers in the cracks
I've got [Gm]nothing to lose no one to answer back
[Eb]All these [Cm]years I've brought up for [Eb]review
[Eb]Wasn't [Cm]taught this but I learned something[Eb] new
[Eb]And to [Cm]answer the distance c[F]all
At the [Bb]western wall[Gm]
[Bb]I've got a heart full of fear
And I [Gm]offer it on this alter of tears
[Bb]Red dust settles deep in my skin
I don't [Gm]know where it start and where I begin
[Eb]It's a [Cm]crumbling pile of broken [Eb]stones
[Eb]It ain't [Cm]much but it might be [Eb]home
[Eb]If I [Cm]ever loved a place at [F]all
It's the [Bb]western [Gm]wall
SOLO
[Eb]I dont [Cm]know if God was ever a[Eb] man
[Eb]But if she [Gm]was I think I underst[Eb]and
[Eb]Why he [Cm]found a place to break his [F]fall
Near the [Bb]Western [Gm]Wall[Bb] [Gm] [Bb]
