Steer Your Way

A B C# C#m

[Verse]
C#m
Steer your way past the ruins of the Altar and the Mall
           F#m
Steer your way through the fables of Creation and The Fall
           C#m
Steer your way past the Palaces that rise above the rot

[Chorus]
        G#                           A    B
Year by year, month by month, day by day
           C#7      C#m
Thought by thought

[Verse]
C#m
Steer your heart past the Truth that you believed in yesterday
        F#m
Such as Fundamental Goodness and the Wisdom of the Way
           C#m
Steer your heart, precious heart, past the women whom you bought

[Chorus]
        G#                           A    B
Year by year, month by month, day by day
           C#7      C#m
Thought by thought

[Verse]
C#m
Steer your way through the pain that is far more real than you
       F#m
That's smashed the Cosmic Model, that blinded every view
    C#m
And please don't make me go there, though there be a God or not

[Chorus]
        G#                           A    B
Year by year, month by month, day by day
           C#7      C#m
Thought by thought

[Bridge]
     A
They whisper still, the injured stones
                      E
The blunted mountains weep
      A
As he died to make men holy
                          E
Let us die to make things cheap
    B
And say the Mea Culpa, which you probably forgot

[Chorus]
        G#                           A    B
Year by year, month by month, day by day
           C#7      C#m
Thought by thought

[Verse]
C#m
Steer your way, O my heart, though I have no right to ask
       F#m
To the one who was never, never equal to the task
    C#m
Who knows he's been convicted, who knows he will be shot

[Chorus]
        G#                           A    B
Year by year, month by month, day by day
           C#7      C#m
Thought by thought

[Bridge]
     A
They whisper still, the injured stones
                      E
The blunted mountains weep
      A
As he died to make men holy
                          E
Let us die to make things cheap
    B
And say your Mea Culpa, which you gradually forgot

[Chorus]
        G#                           A    B
Year by year, month by month, day by day
           C#7      C#m
Thought by thought
