I'll be here awhile ain't going nowhere 
I'll be here awhile ain't going nowhere 
I'll be here awhile ain't going nowhere 
I'll be here awhile  
 
Bm Em 
Far is solace in the maddening pace 
Sad state written on my face 
 
C G 
Not a tight rope walk but dance 
Uncertain game of chance 
But I'll see it through in time

I'll be here awhile ain't going nowhere 
I'll be here awhile ain't going nowhere 
I'll be here awhile ain't going nowhere 
I'll be here awhile  
 
Bm Em 
And if a person place or thing can deliver 
I will quiver with delight 
Tempted by the hand that could 
Blind my vision and sight 
 
C G 
But at twenty years of age 
In frolic and in rage 
I will see it through in time 
 
C G 
I'll be here awhile ain't going nowhere 
I'll be here awhile ain't going nowhere 
I'll be here awhile ain't going nowhere 
I'll be here awhile 
 
Bm Em 
But the dawn has come into the endless night 
And everything's going to be all right 
 
C G 
But at thirty years of age 
Through frolic and in rage 
All regressed and healed in time 
 
C G 
I'll be here awhile ain't going nowhere 
Said I, said I, said I 
I will survive
