Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Old man on the corner, singing my life

He's playing guitar with a rusty old knife

Each line that he sings rhymes with the truth

And the promise of something beyond the blues

You and me darling took the long way around

Across the wide open country, past the heart attack town

Hit the fork in the road where we all have to choose

Between darkness and light, beyond the blues

Beyond the shadows, and the rain

Beyond the darkness, beyond the pain

You know in your heart there's no way I push through

Take a walk with me darling

Beyond the blues

Solo

That old man on the corner he's been gone for years

His guitar and knife all rusted with tears

There's a song that he gave us that we'll never have to lose

About another life waiting beyond the blues

Beyond the shadows, and the rain

Beyond the darkness, beyond the pain

You know in your heart there's no way I push through

Take a walk with me darling

Beyond the blues

Take a walk with me darling

Beyond the blues
