I put this together after watching this live performance. Its pretty easy to pick up the strumming pattern by just listening to the song. Intro: C Fadd9 Am7 G

C           Fadd9      Am7        G
Farther along well know all about it

C           Fadd9      Am7           G
Farther along well understand why

C                 Fadd9     Am7          G
Cheer up my brothers, live in the sunshine

C            Fadd9         Am7        G
Well understand this, all by and by

C
Tempted and tried, I wondered why

       Fadd9
The good man died, the bad man thrives

       Am7                                             G
And Jesus cries because he loves em both

Were all cast-aways in need of ropes

C					  Fadd9
Hangin on by the last threads of our hope

				Am7
In a house of mirrors full of smoke

			     G
Confusing illusions Ive seen

 C
Where did I go wrong, I sang along

       Fadd9
To every chorus of the song

              Am7
That the devil wrote like a piper at the gates

G						C
Leading mice and men down to their fates

				Fadd9
But some will courageously escape

					Am7
The seductive voice with a heart of faith

			   G
While walkin that line back home

                          C
So much more to life than weve been told

          Fadd9
Its full of beauty that will unfold

       Am7                                                   G
And shine like you struck gold my wayward son

					         C
That deadweight burden weighs a ton

				     Fadd9
Go down into the river and let it run

					   Am7
And wash away all the things youve done

	         G
Forgiveness alright

Chorus Intro 2x

C
Still I get hard pressed on every side

	         Fadd9
Between the rock and a compromise

             Am7				                G
Like the truth and pack of lies fightin for my soul

			         C
And Ive got no place left go

					        Fadd9
Cause I got changed by what Ive been shown

				     Am7
More glory than the world has known

                            G
Keeps me ramblin on

		  C
Skipping like a calf loosed from its stall

      Fadd9
Im free to love once and for all

       Am7			                G
And even when I fall Ill get back up

				           C
For the joy that overflows my cup

				             Fadd9
Heaven filled me with more than enough

				       Am7
Broke down my levee and my bluff

			G
Let the flood wash me

C
And one day when the sky rolls back on us

Fadd9
Some rejoice and the others fuss

Am7						                    G
Cause every knee must bow and tongue confess

That the son of god is forever blessed

C				              Fadd9
His is the kingdom, were the guests

				         Am7
So put your voice up to the test

		             G
Sing Lord, come soon

Chorus
