F

Verse:
F
How long can this go on
Dm
How long can we see this wrong
B flat
and sing the same old song
F
There's a desert all round' me
Dm
and the valley of apathy
B flat
as far as I can see
Bridge:
C        B flat
I was on the outside
C        B flat 5
Always looking in
G
Now I stand, I can't
C
turn and face away
Chorus:
F
Here I will stay, on my 
Dm
own, I will pray, all
B flat
alone, on this stage 
     C   G
in the heartland
Verse 2:
F
When the color of your skin 
Dm
decides where you begin
B flat
then thats what lies within
F
So if you walk alone
Dm
while others cast a stone
B flat
stay on your own
Bridge 2:
C           B flat
The changing of the new tide
C           B flat 5
something you can't hide
G
Take your stand
C
this truth will fade away
CH:
F
Here I will stay, on my 
Dm
own, I will pray, all 
B flat
alone, on this stage 
     C   G
in the heartland
