[Verse]
A                            Bm
They say everything can be replaced

C#m        Bm              A     E7
 Yet every distance is not near

A                  Bm
So I remember every face

C#m          Bm          A       E7
 Of every man who put me here.
[Chorus]
A                   Bm
I see my light come shining

C#m          Bm         A
 From the west unto the east.

A
 Any day now,

Bm
 Any day now,

C#m Bm       A
 I shall be released
[Verse]
A                            Bm
They say every man needs protection.

C#m        Bm              A     E7
They every man must fall.

A                  Bm
Yet I swear I see my reflection,

C#m          Bm          A       E7
Somewhere so high above the wall.
[Chorus]
A                   Bm
I see my light come shining

C#m          Bm         A
 From the west unto the east.

A
 Any day now,

Bm
 Any day now,

C#m Bm       A
 I shall be released
[Verse]
A                            Bm
Well onder stands a man in this lonely crowd,

C#m        Bm              A     E7
A man who swears he not to blame.

A                  Bm
All day long I hear him cry shouting loud,

C#m          Bm          A       E7
Calling out that he's been framed.
[Chorus]
A                   Bm
I see my light come shining

C#m          Bm         A
 From the west unto the east.

A
 Any day now,

Bm
 Any day now,

C#m Bm       A
 I shall be release

Of every man who put me here

I shall be released

Some place so high above the wall

Standing next to me in this lonely room

Em                      Dm     C
Is a man who swears he's not to blame

C                    Dm
All day long I hear him shout so loud

Em       Dm             C
Callin' out that he's been framed
