F G C
[Verse 1]
C C7 F I'm watching the clock tick the hours away G7 C They say that I will hang at the dawn of the day C7 F But why should I fear death when it's life anew G7 C For dying only takes me much closer to you
[Verse 2]
C7 F You left me in anger and walked by the sea G7 C And when they found your body they blamed it on me C7 F But you know they were wrong dear so wait for a while G7 C C Soon we'll be together beyond the last mile

[Verse 3]
C C7 F The stars hide their face to make way for the sun G7 C Death it'll soon claim me and make us as one C7 F While others are walking the streets with a smile G7 C Then I will be walking beyond the last mile
[Verse 4]
C C7 F The jury agreed I have taken your life G7 C The sentence that they gave me it cut like a knife C7 F But I'll face my Maker today with a smile G7 C I know that you'll be waiting beyond the last mile
[Verse 5]
C7 F The chaplain is making his last plea to God G7 C Soon the numbered steps to the scaffold I'll trod C7 F My footsteps won't falter I'll walk with a smile G7 C C I know that you'll be waiting beyond the last mile
