(Verse 1)
G C G
I woke up one morning
C G
All my fingers rotten
C G D G
I woke up a dying man without a chance
C G
I came to your window
C G
Threw a stone and waited
C G
At the door a stranger stood
D G C G
The strangers voice said nothing good
D G C G
I turned to walk the frozen ground
C G
Along all the way home
C G C G C G
Wide-eyed walker Do not wander Do not wander
D G
Through the dawn
(Verse 2)
C G
Both my eyes are fading
C G
No light in the evening
C G D
Planted like a seed in sand and drowned in
G
rain
C G
Watched you for an hour
C G
He kept you beneath him
C G
He kept you on lock and key
D G C G
He paid the wage you sent to me
D G C G
And waste the day so idly
C G
Along all the way home
C G C G C G
Wide-eyed walker Do not wander Do not wander
D
Through the dawn (2x)
C G C G C G
Wide-eyed walker Do not Wander Do not wander

Through the dawn
