(v1) 

G Em 

All these men in my mind, 

G Em 

Angry towns I left behind, 

Am Am D 

But grey’s the only colour I recall. 

G Em 

If you asked me to describe 

G Em 

What I had goin’ on inside, 

Am Am D 

I could tell you nothin' at all. 

Chorus: 

Em A 

I’m a stone’s throw from rock bottom, 

C D Em 

Clinging to the wall, 

Em A 

I'm a stone's throw from rock bottom 

C 

Longing for redemption, 

D Em 

Before I start to fall, 

(v2) 

G Em 

Livin' hard was my undoin’, 

G Em 

Careless lovin’ was my ruin, 

Am Am D 

Lookin’ for a man I could reach. 

G Em 

I knew all those fancy words, 

G Em 

Maybe some you’ve never heard, 

Am Am D 

Maybe not the kind I'd wanna teach. 

Chorus 

Em A 

I’m a stone’s throw from rock bottom, 

C D Em 

Clinging to the wall, 

Em A 

I'm a stone's throw from rock bottom 

C 

Longing for redemption, 

D Em 

Before I start to fall, 

bridge: 

F 

I’ve got nothin’ left to lose, 

C 

No more prayers that I can use, 

Am D 

I’m not even my own best friend. 

F 

Don’t know how this came to be, 

C 

No one else to blame but me, 

Am D 

For how my story might end. 

Chorus 

Em A 

I’m a stone’s throw from rock bottom, 

C D 

Clinging to the wall, 

Em A 

I’m a stone’s throw from rock bottom, 

C  

Longing for redemption, 

D Em 

Before I start to fall, 

Tag: 

C  

Hoping against hope 

D Em 

That I don’t fall.
