E                   A      B       E 
In the darkest hour of the longest night  
E                         A      B      E  
If it was in my power I'd step into the light  
E                     A     B       E  
Candles on the alter, penny in your shoe  
E                    A       B      E 
Walk upon the water, transcendental blues  
 
 
Happy ever after 'til the day you die  
Careful what you ask for, you don't know 'til you try  
Hands are in your pockets, starin' at your shoes  
Wishin' you could stop it ? transcendental blues 
 
 
If I had it my way, everything would change  
Out here on this highway the rules are still the same  
Back roads never carry you where you want 'em to  
They leave you standin' there with them ol' transcendental blues
