VERSE

     G	    C	  G           D

LYRICS:

As I step to the edge of a shadow of a doubt
With my conscience beating
Like the pulse of a drum that hammers on and on
As I reach the break of day
As the sun beats down on the halfway house
Has my conscience beaten
The sound in my ear
The will to persevere
As I hold to the break of day

When you lost all hope and excuses
And the cheapskates and the losers
Nothing's left to cling on to
You got to hold on
Hold on to yourself

A cry of hope
A plea for peace
And my conscience beating
It's not what I want for it's all that I need
To reach the break of day
So I run to the edge of a shadow of a doubt
With my conscience bleeding
Here lies the truth
The lost treasures of my youth
As I hold to the break of day

End on G
