[Intro]

Em         G          C
With progress comes problems

Em         G     C
With wisdom comes age

Em         G     C
With lessons come learning

Em         G     C
And pleasure comes with pain

E          G     C
You can only have the sunshine 

(Strum the next three chords only 1 time. hold guitar silence for the next line.) 

Em C/G C      

after the rain

Em Em Em Em 2x


[Verse]

Em         C/G
I took a walk
   C
It got me thinking

Em       C/G
Left foot, right foot

C       Am
Smiling, blinking

Em          C/G
Breathe out, breathe in

C
Somehow linking

Em        C/G                   C        Am
My soul to my mind and my heart to my mouth

Em        C/G                   C        Am
Lost and the found and the north to the south

G                     D
And the corners to the circle in my mind


[Chorus]

G               D                      Am
We may find that the gate has been locked

G      D                               Am
When we come back down to what we really are

G          D                 Am
Retrace the footprints off the path that is lost

G        D                G             Am
It's like trying to find a needle in the dark


[Verse]

Em      C/G
My hands they are empty

C               Am
But they are clean

Em      C/G
I'm poor but I'm healthy

C                Am
I'm halfway between

C                        G    C
The gutter and the skyline

Am              G        D
So I took a walk to the land's end

Am              G                   D
Thinking about an ex-girlfriend that I had

D                           Am
And the pages that I've turned

G
And it seems to me

D
That we all love the chase

Am                    G
But once we're caught we feel encased

D
Behind bars of love and trust

Am                     G
Uprooted by drunken lust

G         D
By people, people just like us

Am     G                D               
People, people just like us

And now...


[Chorus]

G           D       Am
You may find that the gate has been locked

G       D                                 Am
When we come back down to what we really are

G           D                  Am        
Retrace the footprints off the path that's been lost

G        D                G             Am
It's like trying to find a needle in the dark


[Verse]

Em         C/G         C
So I took a walk to the station

Am
Lost in my imagination

       Em         C/G            C      
Having private conversations with myself

   Em        C/G
And I'm just stumbling around

   C
And I wait for the sound

G                              D
Of this crumbling town to come tumbling down

C             G
People say I'm just bummin' around

    D                           Am
But I've had both my ears to the ground
