[F#m] [E] [F#m] [D]

 

[F#m] Start tearing the [C#m]old man down

Run [E]past the heather and [Bm]down to the old road[F#m]

Start turning the [C#m]grain into the ground[D]

Roll a new leaf over [F#m]

In the [C#m]middle of the night there's an [E]old man

Treading a[Bm]round in the gathered rain

[F#m]Hey mister if you want to [C#m]walk on water[E]

Would you drop a line my [A]way

 

{c:Chorus:}

Oma[E]ha [F#m]

Somewhere in [D]middle America

[A]Get right to the [E]heart of matters [D]

It's the heart that matters [A]more [E]

I think you'd better [F#m]turn your ticket [B]in [D]

And leave your money right at the [A]door [D]

 

[A] [D]

 

 

Start threading the needle

Brush past the shuttle that slides through the cold room

Start turning the wool across the wire

Roll the new life over

In the middle of the night there's an old man

Threading his toes through a bucket of rain

Hey mister if you want to walk on water

You're only going to walk all over me

 

Start running the banner down

Drop past the color come up through the summer rain

Start turning the girl into the ground

Roll a new life over

In the middle of the night there's a young man

Rolling around in the earth and rain

Hey mister if you're going to walk on water, you know

You're only going to walk all over me
