Look at him now[EM]
[C]Another used man[GCG]
[G]Wearing the passin[C]g of his dignity
With all the courage that he[D] can[C]
He stood in the [EM]storm
[C]Carved out in ston[G]e[CG]
[G]He said I've worn my h[C]onesty with pride
In everything I've [D]do[C]ne
[G]So where were you when my [C]ship went [G]down
[EM]Where were you when I r[C]an agroun[G]d
[G]Where were you when I [C]turned it arou[G]nd
[EM]Where were you when they [C]burned me [G]down[C]
Look at her [EM]now
All t[C]ired and w[G]orn[CG]
[G]She never though[C]t her life
Would come to be so cold or so a[D]lone
[EM]She walked in the light
Fought [C]bondage for l[G]ove[CG]
[G]She said I cast off the c[C]hains that I was born with
But it never was[D] enough
CHORUS
[C]Silent souls washed upon the sho[G]res
Left to walk[C] the sands
[C]Evermore, evermo[D]re
[EM]Look at us now, just chas[C]ing our l[G]ives[CG]
[G]Make like the s[C]aviors of the planet
We're just trying to get[D] by
[EM]You may walk the line
You may [C]see it all th[G]rough[CG]
I know you cry[G] yourself to s[C]leep at night
Just wondering what to d[D]o
