Lyrics
In Times Like These
words by Don Taco, arranged by Stephanie Long
In times like these, when you can't see what you're after
In times like these when your heart's an open book.
When you have to borrow daydreams from your neighbors
and the backs are turned no matter where you look.
In times like these when the mountains wear the cloudbanks like a shroud
In times like these with the gloom so thick that it makes you cry aloud
When you need a path, when you need a hand
When you need a guide, when you need a friend
I will be there in times like these.
In times like these when your dreams and hopes are shattered
In times like these when your back's against the wall
When you feel as if there's nothing left that matters
and there's no one there to catch you when you fall.
G#m D#m E7 F#
In times like these when you're walking on the wire without a net
In times like these when the only thing you own is your regret
When you need a path, when you need a hand
When you need a guide, when you need a friend
I will be there in times like these.
INSTRUMENTAL - B part
In times like these when the roads are bloody footprints
In times like these when the slightest wound leaves scars
when you scatter last night's ashes on the snowfall
to pretend that it's the shadows of the stars.
In times like these when the day is just as hopeless as the night
In times like these when the grey obscures the darkness and the light
When you need a path, when you need a hand
When you need a guide, when you need a friend
I will be there in times like these.
