This is a crude transcription. If you have any suggestions or corrections, please e-mail them to me. Intro: D - G - A - D - G
D             G            A          D
I stood on faith, and the corner of ambition

               G             A                D
I came here to sink or swim, and to show them all

               G                    A
That they were wrong,  and though I never thought I'd make it this far

D                      G            A               D
So the curtains are down.  For the moment I was someone

                        D                        G
There were those in the ??? (Don't know this line)

A              D                  G
who came this way.  Now they're gone.

A                                                            D
But there's always someone at home who never forgets who you are.

              A                                    Bm7
And when I'm down and I'm growin' old, it won't be long or I won't try

           Em                          A
I won't be bound to a life out in the cold

D                           Bm7           G                          Em
It's been a steady pace, to keep my steps between these cracks on Broadway

Em F#m  G                      A                    D
And my stride in rhythm to the beat of home sweet home.
(SOLO here. Chords something like G A D G A D, etc.)
             A                         Bm7
And when I'm down and I'm growin' old, I won't be long or I won't try

           Em                           A
I won't be bound to a life out in the cold

D                           Bm7           G                           Em
It's been a steady pace, to keep my steps between these cracks on Broadway

Em F#m G                       A                   ?D           ?Bm7
And my stride in rhythm to the beat of home sweet (Can't go on, I'm on the top

                    ?Em                                                   A
of my better years.  I'm going home.  It's too lonesome on the bottom rung here)

D                           Bm7           G                          Em
It's been a steady pace, to keep my steps between these cracks on Broadway

Em F#m G                       A                     D
And my stride in rhythm to the beat of home sweet home.
Bm7 - 224232 F#m - 244222 You get the idea. Work with it and see what you can come up with. I can't figure out what she says on the fifth line. I'm not so sure about the F#m, but it sounds OK to me. If you don't have this album, you should get it! Alison is a great artist who doesn't get enough recognition, in my opinion! Charted by Joe Karasek ([email protected])
