verse 1
C Dm F
So you come to my world, I can show you
C Bb
Where they lead to the footprints in the sand
C Dm F
On the paths through the valleys and canyons
C Bb
To the veins in your arm, take my hand
Dm Am Eb
I�m the man on the rocks on the island
Bb F
The black pearl, the fool on the hill
F Am Eb
I�m the gold at the end of the rainbow
Bb F
If I ask you to follow, you will
verse 2
C Dm F
So you come to my world to find freedom
C Bb
Give you wings to the stars, you can fly
C Dm F
Bring you hope and a dream to believe in
C Bb
As you float through the dark, crimson sky
Dm Am Eb
I�m the man on the rocks on the island
Bb F
The jewel in the crown of the king
F Am Eb
I�m the hope in the hearts of the helpless
Bb C
The choir where no-one will sing
verse 3 - Key Change
F C
There�s a trail out of the canyon
Bb C
There�s a new life waiting out there
F C
It�ll take you home, out of this chasm
Bb C
Where there�s blue sky sunlight to share

Through the dark, empty caverns deep in your soul

So now you come to the gates for redemption
Eb F
With a ball and chain at your feet
