[This is the live version played by Eric Clapton in Yokohama (Japan), 24 November 1999] INTRO = VERSE VERSE
F/A                       Am
And how do I choose and where do I draw the line

F/A                       Am
Between truth and necessary pain?

F/A                       Am
And how do I know and where do I get my belief

F/A                       Am
That things will be all right again?

F/A                       Am
What words do I use to try and explain

F/A                       Am
To those who've witnessed all my tears?

F/A                       Am
And what does it mean to know all these things

F/A                       Am
When love's been wasted all these years,

Dm7      Em      Am       Am
When love's been wasted all these years.
CHORUS
C             F
Standing in the shadows

Dm7           G7
With my heart right in my hand,

C             Am
Removed from all the people

Dm7           G7
Who could never understand.
BRIDGE
F/A                       Am
I was a pilgrim for your love,

F/A                       Am
A pilgrim for your love.

F/A                       Am
I was a pilgrim for your love,

F/A                       Am
A pilgrim for your love.
VERSE
F/A                       Am
It's like living in a nightmare,

F/A                       Am
Like looking in the blackest hole,

F/A                       Am
Like standing on the edge of nothing,

F/A                       Am
Completly out of control.

F/A                       Am
Now where have I been all these years

F/A                       Am
And how come I just couldn't see?

F/A                       Am
Like a blind man walking 'round in darkness,

F/A                       Am
I was a pilgrim for your love,

Dm7      Em      Am       Am
I was a pilgrim for your love.
CHORUS
C             F
Standing in the shadows

Dm7           G7
With my heart right in my hand,

C             Am
Removed from all the people

Dm7           G7
Who could never understand.

C             F
Standing in the shadows

Dm7           G7
With my heart right in my hand,

C             Am
Removed from all the people

Dm7           G7
Who could never understand.
