A D
Coming over mountains
A F#- E
they pale beside the wall between us now.
D B- A
Since I refuse to play along.
A D
It's always been another
A F#- E
to do the damage you live every-day,
D B- A
and leave you cursing for escape.
chorus
E
Each day I see a ball and chain
D B-
grow a little more ingrained,
E
and watch you corner pain
D B- A
sayin' nothin', nothing's gonna change.
E D B- E D B- A E D B- E D B- D A
Why is the world so damn unkind
to one so righteous in her mind?
The sun won't rise and shine.
Will you never.. find your peace of mind?
A D A D
A D A F#- E D B- A
My father couldn't bother
to play the kind of role a child required.
instead of trying he retired.
With so much yet to conquer
to feel alone while so-called friends don't phone.
You know the pain is not their own.
CHORUS E D B- E D B- A E D B- E D B- D A
A D A F#- E D B- A
Coming over mountains
to feel the tension hiding in these walls.
You see all trace of spirit fall.
My father couldn't bother
and now he's back to find his place again.
Sorry, but the book's been burned.
CHORUS E D B- E D B- A E D B- E D B- D
A D A D A D A A
Your peace of mind... Your peace of mind... [end]
