Listen & view Joe Pug - The Door Was Always Open lyrics & tabs

After all the windows
On the ground floor had been broken
After all the undemandin' officers had spoken
After all the trouble
After all o' the commotion
I walked right through
The door was always open

I climbed the western wall
Without anybody knowin'
I held the guardsman captive
With a pistol I had stolen

He just poured a cup of coffee
And said, "Son now here's a notion.
The next time you drop by
The door is always open."

I waited for the sun
But it was already dawn
It was already dawn
Breakin' fast all along

And I waited for her song
But she was already gone
She was already gone
Breakin' fast all along

So it seems I've spent a lifetime
Arrested and beholden
Standin' on the threshold
Absolutely frozen

Waitin' on some God above
To tell me I was chosen
Instead I spoke myself
The door was always open

Instead I spoke myself
The door was always open
