[Verse 1]
C F A million footsteps, this left foot drags behind my right G C But I keep walking, from daybreak 'til the falling night
And as days turn into weeks and years
And years turn into lifetimes
F Am G I just keep walking, like I've been walking for a thousand years C Walk away in emptiness, walk away in sorrow F G Walk away from yesterday, walk away tomorrow C If you're walking to escape, to escape from your affliction F G C You'd be walking in a great circle, a circle of addiction
Did you ever wonder what you'd been carrying since the world was black?
F G You see yourself in a looking glass with a tombstone on your back
[Chorus 1]
C Walk away in emptiness, walk away in sorrow F G Walk away from yesterday, walk away tomorrow (Walk Away...) C Walk away in anger, walk away in pain F G Walk away from life itself, walk into the rain
[Chorus 2]
Am F G Em F Dm G All this wandering has led me to this place E Am F Fm Em Inside the well of my memory, sweet rain of forgiveness F G I'm just hanging here in space
[Verse 2]
C Now I'm suspended between my darkest fears and dearest hope F G Yes I've been walking, now I'm hanging from a dead man's rope C With Hell below me, and Heaven in the sky above F G I've been walking, I've been walking away from Jesus' love
[Chorus 1]
C Walk away in emptiness, walk away in sorrow F G Walk away from yesterday, walk away tomorrow (Walk Away...) C Walk away in anger, walk away in pain F G Walk away from life itself, walk into the rain
[Chorus 2]
