Back in seventyfive when the kid was on the line and he felt no pain 'cause there was none He would bend in the wind, take in anything like sniffin' roses, and it was all right until he fell and cut his hand He just could not understand He ran away, blame pretence for defence or plain innocence Said that's all right, the harder it fights, I'm one step closer to home The deeper it bites , I'm one step closer to home And you can tie my hands or whip my back I can't give in, till the sky turns black I may get lost - I'm one step closer to home ADADA Em G (As in the Intro.)
