[Intro]
G C
[Verse]
N.C. G C G
There's a light in the darkness just barely out of view
D
From the corner of your vision, it beckons to you
G C
After the crops have all come in, amid the stubble and the chaff
Em D G C D G C
Keep on walking when it whispers and don't look back
[Verse]
N.C. G C G
Some say it's the Ghost Train's headlight or poor Wayland Smith's pyre
D
Some say it's the Will O' The Wisp or Saint Elmo's Fire
G C
Or the ghost of wandering spirits that got lost between the worlds
Em D G C D G
Keep on walking when they whisper or if the lines begin to blur
[Chorus]
C
When it's done, it's said and done
Em D C
When it's gone, it's good and gone
Em D G
Sometimes there's nothing left to do
C D G C
But pack it up and move along
[Verse]
N.C. G C G
I'm not saying I don't remember or that all things can be repaired
D
But after the truth has been told, where do you go from there?
G C
Sorrow is a constant companion, we just learn to walk beside
Em D G C D G
Keep on walking when it whispers and don't listen when it lies
[Chorus]
C
When it's done, it's said and done
Em D C
When it's gone, it's good and gone
Em D G
Sometimes there's nothing left to do
C D G C
But pack it up and move along
[Verse]
N.C. G C G
There are stories we are told just to keep us in our place
D
There are stories we made up ourselves to save a little face
G C
There the ones that made us crazy and the ones that kept us sane
Em D G C D G
Keep on walking if the stories all start to sound the same
[Chorus]
