lyrics

Strait Is the Gate

Intro: Verse instr

Gm Bb
I travelled far and wide
D Gm
Seeking anything to feed my desires
Bb Dm
Cunning and secret all the things I’d hide
Gm Dm
And courage built in backstreet bars

Am Am
But the truth always finds a way
C C
Of getting itself out
Bb Eb
And our lives become an open book
G# Cm F Cm Bb F
Our sins are there for all who look. And..

Cm Bb
Strait is the gate
Dm Gm
That leads us out of here
Gm Bb Eb Bb
Narrow is the path that can take away our fears
F Eb Bb
Strait is the gate to heaven

I wish I could go right back
With everything I learnt with age
Undo the pain and retrace the track
To the innocence of my early days

But time only lets me go ahead
Trying to make amends where I can
Helping others, never yielding to my greed
Treading softly as each footstep leads. And...

Chorus

Verse & link instr

Chorus

Eb Bb
I guess I ruined the temple of my soul
F Gm
And treated my body like a worthless tool
Cm Eb
I gotta hope I can make things right
Bb
Come out of the darkness and into the light

Chorus etc
