About the Song
Battered & torn, still I can see the light
Tattered and worn but I must kneel to fight
Friend of mine, what can't you spare?
I know some times it gets cold in there
E - A E (4x)
When my legs no longer carry
And the warm wind chills my bones
I reach for Mother Mary
And I shall not walk alone
A B7 C#m - (3x) A B7 E -
Hope is alive while we're apart
Only tears speak from my heart
Break the chains that hold us down
And we shall be forever bound
Beauty that we left behind
How shall we tomorrow find?
Set aside our weight in sin
So that we can live again
