Intro: G A D
D Dsus2 D
I stand on the stairway
G
My back to the dungeon
A
The doorway to freedom
D
So close to my hand
G
And voices behind me
D
So bitterly damn me
A
For seeking salvation
D Dsus2 D
They dont understand
Chorus:
Gm?
Lord, help me to shoulder
D
The burden of freedom
Gm?
And give me the courage
A
To be what I can
D
And when I am wounded
G
By those who condemn me
A
Lord, help me forgive them

D Dsus2 D
They dont understand
Their lonely frustration
Descending to laughter
Erases the footprints
I leave in the sand
But Im free to travel
Where no one can follow
In search of the kingdom
They dont understand
Chorus:
Gm?
Lord, help me to shoulder
D
The burden of freedom
Gm?
And give me the courage
A
To be what I can
D
And when I have wounded
G
The last one who loved me
A
God help her forgive me
D Dsus2 D
I dont understand.
