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 wings who waited
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                          E
It's been a steady pace, to keep my steps between these cracks on Broadway
E   F#m  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.)

           E                           A
I won't be bound to a life out in the cold
D                           Bm7           G                           E
It's been a steady pace, to keep my steps between these cracks on Broadway
E   F#m 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                          E

E   F#m 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'm not
so sure about the F#m, but it sounds OK to me.   There is cool AKUS website
