FINISH LINE - Elton John & Stevie Wonder [Intro] Gm7 C F C/E Dm7 [Verse 1]
Gm7      C 
You, oh you

             F    C/E    Dm7
Are still a beauty to behold

Gm7             C 
You’ve been my muse

      F               F7
Every story that I’ve told

     Bb                C 
Oh, take me back some years

                 Am7             Dm7
To when we were young without a fear
[Pre-Chorus]
      Gm7                   C                  Dm 
All along you have been the song that I wanna hear
[Chorus]
          Bb               F/A
I’ve been down the darkest alleys

            C/G                     F  C/E Dm7
Been to the bottom where the angels cry

        C      Bb                F/A
Thought it had all been, all for nothing

        C/G                   F
Until I saw you at the finish line
[Verse 2]
Gm7     C           F             C/E  Dm7
Forgive me, for the ways I’ve let you down

Gm7             C          F                    F7
Won’t you give me, another chance to make you proud

    Bb                    C 
Oh, flash forward twenty years

                 Am7                      Dm7 C Bb 
Forever keep me young and my conscience clear
[Pre-Chorus]
F/A   Gm7                    C                  Dm  C  Dm
All along, you have been the song that I wanna hear, ooh yeah, ah
[Chorus]
          Bb               F/A
I’ve been down the darkest alleys

             C/G                     F  C/E Dm7 
Been to the bottom where the angels cry (Where the angels cry)

        C      Bb                F/A
Thought it had all been, all for nothing

Until I saw you at the finish line

Yes, I’ve been down the darkest alleys

            C/G                     F  C/E Dm7 
Been to the bottom where the angels cry (Angels cry)

Been to the bottom watching life go by (Watching life go by)

        C      Bb                F/A
Thought it had all been, all for nothing

        C/G                   F
Until I saw you at the finish line (Finish line)

Been to the bottom where the angels cry

        C      Bb                F/A
Thought it had all been, all for nothing

         C/G                   F
Until I saw you at the finish line
