FALLS TO CLIMB

G             D
I'll take the position
           C           Em  G5
assume the missionare part
you work by committee, you had me pegged from the start.
I'll be pounce pony, phony maroney, pony before the cart.
I'll be pounce pony, this ceremony only fills my heart.

D            G     C       D             G        C
who cast the final stone?  who threw the crushing blow?
D              G        C      Am      G
someone has to take the fall   why not me?

a punch toy volunteer a weakling on its knee.
is all you want to hear and all you want to see.
romantically, you'd martyr me and miss this story's point
it is my strength, my destiny this is the role that I have chosen.

who cast the final stone? who threw the crushing blow?
someone has to take the fall why not me? why not me?

F  Am  C   G     F  Am  C   G    F  Am  C   G    Am     G

gentlemen mark your opponents fire into your own ranks.
pick the weakest as strategec move, square off. to
meet your enemy.
for each and every gathering a scapegoat falls to climb.
as I step forward, silently, deliberately mine

who cast the final stone? who threw the crushing blow?
someone has to take the fall why not me? why not me.
    Am                G                  Am            G
had consequence chose differently    had fate its ugly head
   Am              G                Am          G
my actions make me beautiful    and dignify the flesh

Am   G      Am   G       Am   G
me.        I am free.   I am free
Am   G      Am   G       Am   G     Am   G
