[Intro]
Dm 8x
[Verse]
Dm
She took the fire as she was leaving
No forgiveness and no confession
Dm
Now I'm sifting through the cold grey ashes
Looking for peace in my redemption
Dm 4x
Dm
She was my secret and I was a sinner
Had to whisper our confession
Dm
Went to the well and looked in the mirror
[Chorus]
G
Raised a glass to my redemption
Dm
How long till I drink from the fountain
G
Redemption
Dm
How high till the top of mountain
F C G Bb
How long, how long, am I gone
Dm
Beyond redemption
Dm 4x
[Verse]
Dm
Bullets flying out of nowhere
Reaching out with no exceptions
Dm
Another preacher cries on the TV
Wants my money
[Chorus]
G
And my redemption
Dm
How long till I drink from the fountain
G
Redemption
Dm
How high till the top of mountain
F C G Bb
How long, how long, am I gone
Dm
Beyond redemption
[Instrumental]
Dm F G Dm F G 4x

Dm 4x
[Bridge]
Dm
Save me
Dm
Won't somebody save me?
Dm
Down in the valley
Try to rise up
Dm
Won't somebody
Somebody
Save me?
Dm 4x
Dm
No salvation in an empty promise
Hollow wall with no protection
Dm
I have to kneel at the altar
It's the last chance
[Chorus]
G
For my redemption
Dm
How long till I drink from the fountain
G
Redemption
Dm
How high till the top of mountain
F C
How long, how long,
G
Oh can you hear me calling now
G
(My redemption)
Dm
Oh can you hear me calling
G
(My redemption)
Dm
One last chance for my redemption
F C G Bb
How long, how long, am I gone
Dm
Beyond redemption
