Em C As I walk through the valley G D of the shadow of LA Em C The footsteps that were next to me G D have gone their separate ways Em Iʼve seen enough now C to know that beautiful things G D donʼt always stay that way Em Iʼve done enough now C to know this beautiful place G D isnʼt everything they say Em C G D I heard that evil comes disguised Em C Like a city of angels G D Iʼm walking towards the light Em C Baptized in the river G Iʼve seen a vision of my life D And I wanna be delivered Em C In the city was a sinner G Iʼve done a lot of things wrong D But I swear Iʼm a believer Em C Like the prodigal son I was out on my own G D Now Iʼm trying to find my way back home Em C Baptized in the river G Iʼm delivered D Iʼm delivered Youʼre from a small town youʼre gonna grow up fast underneath these lights Down in Hollywood on the boulevard the dead come back to life To the praying Mother And the worried Father Let your children go If they come back theyʼll come on stronger and if they donʼt youʼll know They say that evil comes disguised Like a city of angels Iʼm walking towards the light Baptized in the river Iʼve seen a vision of my life And I wanna be delivered In the city was a sinner Iʼve done a lot of things wrong But I swear Iʼm a believer Like the prodigal son I was out on my own Now Iʼm trying to find my way back home Baptized in the river Iʼm delivered Iʼm delivered Baptized in the river (on my own) Baptized in the river (on my own) I wanna be delivered (on my own) (on my own) Baptized in the river (on my own) I wanna be delivered Baptized in the river (on my own) I wanna be delivered Baptized in the river (on my own) I wanna be delivered I confess Iʼm a sinner Iʼve seen a vision of my life And I wanna be delivered
