----  2x
Reverend,  reverend
Is  this some conspiracy?
Crucified  for no  sins
An  image beneath  me
Lost  within my plans  for life
It  all seems so  unreal
I'm  a man cut  in half in this world
Left  in my misery
 The reverend, he turned to me
 Without a tear in his eyes
 It's nothing new for him to see
 I didn't ask him why
 I will remember
 The love our souls had sworn to make
 Now I watch the falling rain
 All my mind can see now is your (face)
Well,  I guess you took  my youth
 And gave  it all away
Like  the birth of a new  found joy
 This love  would end in rage
And  when she died
I  couldn't cry
The  pride within my soul
You  left me incomplete
All  alone as the memories  now unfold
 Believe the word
 I will unlock my door
 And pass the cemetery gates
 Sometimes when I'm alone
 I wonder aloud
 If you're watching over me
 Some place far abound
 I must reverse my life
 I can't live in the past
 Let me set my soul free
 Unto to me at last
 Through all those complexed years
 I thought I was alone
 I didn't care to look around
 And make this world my own
 And when she died
 I should've cried and spared myself some pain
 You left me incomplete
 All alone as the memories still remain
 The way we were
 The chance to save my soul
 And my concern is now in vain
 Believe the word
 I will unlock my door
 And pass the cemetery... gates
 (Solo)
 The way we were
 The chance to save my soul
 And my concern is now in vain
 Believe the word
 I will unlock my door
 And pass the cemetery gates
 Gates

[F#m]Reverend,[A] reverend

[F#m]Lost within my pl[A]ans for life
[E]It all seems s[Bm]o u[A]nreal
[F#m]I'm a man c[A]ut in half in this world
[E]Left in my misery[D]

The reverend, he turned to me
Without a tear in his eyes
It's nothing new for him to see

[F#m]Well, I guess you t[A]ook my youth
And g[E]ave it all aw[Bm]ay [A]
[F#m]Like the birth of a n[A]ew found joy

Let me set my soul free
Unto to me at last

Through all those complexed years
I thought I was alone
I didn't care to look around
And make this world my own

And when she died
I should've cried and spared myself some pain
You left me incomplete
All alone as the memories still remain

The way we were
The chance to save my soul
And my concern is now in vain

Believe the word

And pass the cemetery... gates

(Solo)

The way we were
The chance to save my soul
And my concern is now in vain

Believe the word
