Intro: D - G - A - D - G
D G A D
I stood on faith, and the corner of ambition
G A D
I came here to sink or swim, and to show them all
G A
That they were wrong, and though I never thought I`d make it this far
D G A D
So the curtains are down. For the moment I was someone
D G
There were those in the ??? (Don`t know this line)
A D G
who came this way. Now they`re gone.
A D
But there`s always someone at home who never forgets who you are.
A Bm7
And when I`m down and I`m growin` old, it won`t be long or I won`t try
Em A
I won`t be bound to a life out in the cold
D Bm7 G Em
It`s been a steady pace, to keep my steps between these cracks on Broadway
Em Fm G A D
And my stride in rhythm to the beat of home sweet home.
(SOLO here. Chords something like G A D G A D, etc.)

And when I`m down and I`m growin` old, I won`t be long or I won`t try

D Bm7 G Em
It`s been a steady pace, to keep my steps between these cracks on Broadway
Em Fm G A ?D ?Bm7
And my stride in rhythm to the beat of home sweet (Can`t go on, I`m on the top
?Em A
of my better years. I`m going home. It`s too lonesome on the bottom rung here)
D Bm7 G Em
It`s been a steady pace, to keep my steps between these cracks on Broadway
Em Fm G A D
And my stride in rhythm to the beat of home sweet home.

You get the idea. Work with it and see what you can come up with. I can`t
figure out what she says on the fifth line. I`m not so sure about the Fm,
but it sounds OK to me. If you don`t have this album, you should get it!
Alison is a great artist who doesn`t get enough recognition, in my opinion!
