Beyond the Iron Gate Richard Shindell
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: C G (2x) C
First warm day in all these [G]months[C]
All the sunlight made me [G]drunk[F]
Made me feel like I could [C]run
Made me feel like I was [G]young[C]
So I went out all on my [G]own[C]
I told no one where I'd [G]go[F]
Anyway I did not [C]know
I only knew I had to [G]go[F]
CHORUS:
C ~ Am
Out beyond the iron gate
Out there where you[F] sai[G]d you'd [C]wait
INTERLUDE: C G (2x) C
I'd gotten used to living [G]here[C]
Call it habit, call it [G]fear[F]
Though I had glanced your way for [C]years
Until today, I'd never [G]dared[C]
But it was easy slipping [G]through[C]
Easy as the morning [G]dew[F]
That lingers 'til the after[C]noon
And rises back into the [G]blue[F]
CHORUS:
C ~ Am
Out beyond the iron gate
Out there where you[F] sai[G]d you'd [C]wait
INSTRUMENTAL: C G (4x) F C G C
There you were right by my [G]side[C]
Reaching down to lift me [G]high[F]
I held on with all my [C]might
Held onto a world made [G]right[F]
CHORUS:
C ~ Am
Out beyond the iron gate
Out there where you[F] sai[G]d you'd [C]wait
INTERLUDE: C G (2x) C
I heard the voices all a[G]round[C]
Someone lifted off the [G]shroud[F]
I saw my children gather '[C]round
And I will tell them what I've [G]found[F]
CHORUS:
C ~ Am
Out beyond the iron gate
Out there where you[F] sai[G]d you'd [C]wait
OUTRO: C G C G F C G C (3x - fade to end)
